Appendix B.7 Great Plains IDEA Enrollment Management Principles Principle 1: Alliance programs are structured to facilitate access to in-demand post-baccalaureate education for employed professionals. 1. The curriculum accommodates the need for part-time study and full-time work. 2. All required courses are offered to allow students to move through the program in a timely manner and in accordance with a published schedule. 3. Alliance programs are structured to maximize the number of qualified applicants that can be served. Principle 2: Costs incurred by partner universities and the Alliance are funded by enrollments in Alliance courses; therefore, we seek to optimize the enrollment in each Alliance course. 1. Course enrollment targets are 20-40 students/section. 2. If enrollment demand for an Alliance course exceeds 40, students in Alliance programs will get first preference for enrollment in the course and a plan to manage excess enrollment demand will be developed. 3. By MOA, all courses will be taught on the agreed upon schedule whether enrollments fully support the instructional costs or not. Principle 3: The choice of whom to admit to the inter-institutional program is made at the admitting institution. 1.Partner universities will uphold institutional standards for admission to graduate study. 2. Each partner university will uphold its obligation to recruit, admit, and retain qualified students.
