Standing Committees

Admissions and Student Aid

Mission Statement

The primary mission of the Committee is to make recommendations to the Senate on matters pertaining to Student Admissions and Financial Aid bearing on Admission.

Committee Activities

In order to carry out the above mission this Committee shall review and make recommendations regarding:

1. admission's criteria for the purpose of identifying concerns and possible issues;
2. admission's trends and their impact on the University;
3. recruitment activities and factors that impede this process;
4. retention efforts and their impact on admissions;
5. student financial aid policies and procedures and their impact on the student body.

While these activities are necessary in order to make recommendation and identify potential problems/issues that need further investigation and/or action, it is not necessary for all these activities to be done yearly. It is the responsibility of the Committee members to identify areas to be dealt with each year.
