Initiative Title | (VIEW NOTE - CAPITAL CAMPAIGN) Scholarships and Incentives |
Submitted in Previous Year(s) | 2011 |
Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale | Provide all students in program with money to cover costs while at SUNY Orange. This will increase program enrollment, make recruiting easier, attract higher quality students, and provide them opportunities to focus on academic work not working to pay for college. |
Consequences of this initiative not being funded | +Student numbers will remain low with no improvement in the quality of students attending. +We will not service the needs of all of Orange County students. +Quality students will, as they are now, go elsewhere--including other community colleges that offer better financial incentives + Students who do come here will continue to focus on working rather than more full realizing their academic potential |
Department Goals | Improve student retention within courses, semester to semester, and from year to year, Increase number of students recruited from within the institution |
