In 2022, SUNY Niagara undertook a comprehensive review of its enrollment management planning, looking at the entire enrollment funnel from prospect to post-graduate outcomes. The Committee established goals for the plan around the following clusters.

1. Student Funnel from Recruiting to Completion
2. Recruiting and Marketing
3. Educational Offerings
4. Data

With those strategic goals in mind, the Strategic Enrollment Management Committee led a college-wide review and update of the College’s goals around areas related to new enrollment streams, curricula, engagement with regional industries, and sustainability of continuous improvement efforts.

The Committee followed through with detailed strategies and tactics that are flexible and designed to be modified by divisional leadership and program directors or coordinators.

Our 2023-2025 strategic plan thus envisions a three-year process to transform the college around new academic programs, innovative ways to improve our conversion, persistence, and retention metrics, and efficiency measures that will allow all of this to be feasible within the budget of a medium-sized institution. We aim to complete the physical transformation of SUNY Niagara in order to accommodate new programming in allied health as well as advanced technology, formally establish NFCI as our second campus, and grow college access through a mix of scheduling and modality changes in order to make it easier for working adults to access college.
