OBSERVATIONS AND CONCERNS Growth is being achieved through increases in undergraduate enrollment Growing undergraduate enrollment to cover graduate enrollment declines would likely impact: o SAT score or scholarship/aid costs o Retention o Campus instructional capacity and infrastructures o UB s rankings - As a large part of our identity as a comprehensive research university, UB offers exceptional graduate and professional degrees, and educates tomorrow s professional and academic leaders There is a critical need for advanced degrees (particularly Master s) for professional careers and societal progress 5
NEXT STEPS In the coming months, UB will be working on expanding graduate enrollment while ensuring we are continuing to recruit exceptional students - We will also continue ongoing processes to identify policy, infrastructure and service challenges to achieve a student enrollment of 30,000, and processes that result in increased student quality and increase yield 6
