Graduate enrollment has declined in CSD master's programs across the country.
However, there are ways to maintain holistic admissions processes and
successfully pivot to achieve goals of recruitment and enrollment in your
program. This webinar presents active admissions processes with interview
formats being used by two different programs in order to illustrate the
feasibility of holistic admissions processes. We will also present ways to
re-evaluate and review in times of low enrollment.
Learning Objectives
- Identify procedures using holistic admissions including interviews
- Summarize graduate enrollment decline and challenges it presents
- Discuss ways to achieve enrollment goals with admissions processes
