Article Abstract

Related Issue:

In light of impaction, increasing operational costs, and increased competition among institutions in terms of degrees offered as well as marketing dollars to attract prospective students, state-funded institutions are under increasing pressure to maximize operations via increased efficiency in enrollment management efforts. This study analyzes the impact of a limited-scope public-private partnership on various aspects of the enrollment management funnel for a target set of academic programs at the graduate level in a self-supporting college within a state university system.
