The admissions advisory committee discussed its priorities in student recruitment in a meeting Tuesday.
Steve Farmer, vice provost for enrollment and undergraduate admissions, noted the four priorities admissions has to focus on for the next three to five years: Providing great care to applicants, recruiting top North Carolinians and students with a strength in diversity, evaluating applicants respectfully and improving transfer experience.
“We want to attract people with a willingness to work hard and who will make the University better than it is,” Farmer said. “This institution runs on the talent and potential of its students.”
Preliminary statistics for the incoming class of 2016 were also discussed at the assembly. The official statistics for the freshman class will be released in the next two weeks to the Board of Trustees.
