Colleagues,
The spring semester is well underway, and once again campus is vibrant with activity. I appreciate your ongoing, collaborative work to support our students, particularly those preparing to graduate in May. As we guide these Hilltoppers toward the finish line, we also continue working diligently to build the next class of students who will join our community.
To that end, I’m pleased to share that we have experienced positive momentum in our efforts to attract our next freshman class. More than 11,000 prospective first-time, first-year students have applied for admission for the fall 2025 term, a clear reflection of the meaningful recruitment efforts underway across our campus. While we will continue to admit students throughout the spring, we know we admit approximately 85% of our incoming class before Winter Break.
With this in mind, our focus now shifts to yielding admitted students - helping them make their final decisions to enroll. A one-percent increase in yield translates to dozens more students enriching our community and engaging in the life-changing WKU Experience.
