    Breakdown of out-of-state students at the University
Students come from all over the United States to attend the University. The largest portion of out-of
state students come from California, although these numbers are dropping.

Students: 28 percent from out-of-state
% Continued from Page 1
constitute 28 percent of the stu
dent population.
Early decision programs are
becoming increasingly more pop
ular among college admissions,
Pitts said. Students applying for
admission to a college can re
ceive early notification of accep
tance based on the premise that
they will commit to attend that
university or college.
This year the University imple
mented an early-action scholar
ship review program to let stu
dents know in November the
amount of money they can re
ceive in scholarships.
Being responsive to student
needs means knowing the trend
for students to make decisions
about their college opportunities
earlier in high school. Juniors in
high school need more informa
tion than they have in past years,
Pitts said.
"We’re working to increase
out-of-state student enrollment,”
Pitts said. “We try to keep enroll
ment high by providing better in
formation to students about the
value of coming here even if it
costs more.”
Got a concern, story idea? Happy with what we’re doing?
