The Remainder of the Competition
Liberal Arts Colleges: C l t i i t th t l lit f th ll • Carleton wins against the great plurality of other small liberal arts colleges. This includes Midwest schools like Kenyon, Macalester, Oberlin, Grinnell and St. Olaf.
Universities: • Carleton loses consistently and most clearly to all major • Carleton loses consistently and most clearly to all major
national private universities such as the Ivy League.
• Carleton has less overlap with major public universities, but tends to win against most of these like the Universities of Michigan or Wisconsin.g
• University of Minnesota is not a major overlap school yet.

NATIONAL DEMOGRAPHICS

Where are Students Coming From?
• Declining population of H.S. g p pgraduates in our traditional recruiting areas (upper Midwest East and West areas (upper Midwest, East and West coasts)
• Increasing student population in the g p pSouth (a mixed blessing): – Increased diversity but Increased diversity, but . . .– Less likely to head north for college

Maintaining Diversity of Student Body
• In light of the demographic trends just noted, i i lifi d li d f recruiting qualified applicants, esp. students of
color, low-income students, and first-generation college students may become more difficultcollege students may become more difficult.
• Note: Carleton’s success in southern recruiting • Note: Carleton s success in southern recruiting has heretofore been limited.
• However, international recruiting has been a growth area in the last decadegrowth area in the last decade.

Less $$ for the Middle Class
• If we keep raising our fees higher than the growth in • If we keep raising our fees higher than the growth in median family income and more than the consumer price index, there will be greater demand for financial aid.
• Even if we recruit/matriculate a greater % of affluent students (i.e., increase our need sensitivity cap) . . . the neediest students will still command a larger portion of the id b d taid budget.
• This will leave more limited resources to enable middle l t d t t t C l t Middl l class students to come to Carleton. Middle class ranges up
to $175K income, and many of these qualify for aid.
Middle class is where many of our students are Middle class is where many of our students are.
