Facing the Challenge: Sustaining Enrollment Growth in an Evolving Landscape

With a looming demographic cliff and shifting demand for higher education, universities must innovate to thrive. From 2019 to 2023, Charlotte’s enrollment rose by 2%, predominantly driven by a surge in online programs (84% of Charlotte enrollment growth). Now, we’re committed to doubling our online program enrollments by 2028.

Enrollment metrics are vital, and the School of Professional Studies is here to help! Our expert program managers can review your program’s performance and design including competitor analysis, market and student demand outlook, recommendations on course design optimization, and analyzing potential admissions and enrollment barriers and recommend some tailored solutions to consider. Let’s ensure your program’s success in the digital age.
