Dear Colleagues,
As I shared with you recently, our fall-to-spring retention rates continue to grow in record fashion. This strong performance signals that students feel supported and valued as members of our Hilltopper family.
Now, as we proceed through admission yield season, we have an opportunity to ensure our admitted students also feel welcomed and supported as they make their final college decisions. The connections and relationships we establish with them now will increase their likelihood of enrollment and shape their academic start at WKU.
I appreciate the collaborations between of our Admissions Office and academic colleges as they guide future Hilltoppers through the pre-enrollment process. I encourage every unit to continue honing our yield processes and developing new ways to make the transition from high school to campus as seamless as possible. We remain steadfast in our goal to provide an exceptional experience for every student and to reinforcing confidence in their decision to pursue a WKU degree.
