Enrollment, Room and Waitlist Capacity Adhoc Committee

Review of Course Caps, Waitlists and Room Assignments

The Office of the Provost, through the associate provost for academic operations, accreditation, and assessment, is leading a review of course caps, waitlists, and room assignments to determine if any existing practices are barriers to student retention and timely graduation. A committee consisting of the associate deans along with one faculty member from each college will conduct the study.

The Process

Input from faculty regarding existing practices, recommendations, and areas the committee should review is welcomed. If you have ideas on what the committee should review, questions about the process, or recommendations about practices, please contact Steve Raper or David Westenberg or fill out the form below.

The form will remain open throughout the process, which is anticipated to continue through the spring 2025 semester. Updates to the review will be emailed to faculty.

What’s next?

The committee and anticipated meeting dates will be announced via email and on this page. Should any barriers be identified, potential solutions will be explored and vetted through Faculty Senate meetings.

Frequently Asked Questions

It is important to gather data to support our processes and test our assumptions. Time-to-graduate and retention are key factors in student success, and we need to be certain our practices support student success.

If no issues are found, processes will remain the same but may be reviewed periodically to ensure students can graduate in a timely fashion and space utilization is optimized for campus needs.

If isolated barriers are identified, the committee will work with the identified area to resolve the barriers.
