Rockefeller to become the first president of the University of Chicago before the turn of the century. During his 15-year presi- dency, that university emerged as one of the lead- ers in a movement to reform higher education.

  • Enrollment Summary2015
    ENROLLMENT SUMMARY 2015 Division of Enrollment Management and Marketing TABLE OF CONTENTS LETTER TO THE UNIVERSITY COMMUNITY University Enrollment 2 University Colleagues, Undergraduate Enrollment 4 It is with great pleasure that I present DePaul’s 2015 enrollment summary. This annual Freshman Enrollment 6 report describes the university’s enrollment profile and how it has changed over the years Transfer Enrollment 8 as we have pursued our ambitious enrollment goals. Freshman and Transfer Demographics 10 DePaul’s fall 2015 enrollment of 23,539 students surpassed not only the overall target, Freshman Admission Trends 12 but also the individual targets for the undergraduate, graduate and law populations. And even with a slightly lower overall enrollment than last year, we generated a record level of Transfer Admission Trends 13 tuition revenue. Taken together, these successes are critical to maintaining and enhancing Retention and Graduation Rates 14 our academic enterprise. Graduate and Law Enrollment 16 One of the most promising achievements this fall is in new student enrollment. The 6,415 New Graduate Enrollment 18 new students eclipse the budget target by 4 percent, creating a multiple-year positive Credit Hour Distribution 21 impact that positions us favorably to weather the inevitable market volatility we will Diversity 22 encounter in upcoming enrollment cycles. National Comparisons 24 The diversity of our students also stands out. The 8,229 students of color represent the highest number ever at DePaul. Students of color comprise 38 percent of undergraduate students, 29 percent of graduate students and 25 percent of law students—all university records. While many institutions talk about improving diversity, we achieve it.
