From the Desk of The President

The pandemic had a negative impact on college enrollments both nationally and in our state.  As a college and district, we have been focused on rebuilding our enrollments and re-engaging students, particularly students who may have stopped out.

Two examples of enrollment metrics are headcount and Full Time Equivalent Students (FTES).
