CSUCI STRATEGIC ENROLLMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN 2010-11
Introduction
The purpose of an enrollment management plan is to provide a tool to plan for, measure, and
achieve established University goals. Built on the concept that enrollment belongs to everyone,
the development of this plan is a cooperative effort and spear-headed by a broadly representative
campus-wide committee, the Enrollment Management and Student Success Committee. By
consistently establishing goals that are aligned with the University’s mission; measuring results;
and making data-driven decisions that include analysis of both internal and external conditions
and data, the plan can assist CSUCI in the achievement of its mission.
Committee for Student Access, Retention, and Success
The Committee for Student Access, Retention, and Success is charged with the responsibility of
developing, implementing and assessing progress on achieving the Student Access, Retention
and Success initiative that is a component of the University’s Strategic Plan. Specifically the
group will engage appropriate offices and stakeholders on campus to ensure that two-year and
five-year goals are met. The Student Access, Retention and Success Committee will report its
progress periodically to the President’s Planning and Policy Council.
Strategic Enrollment Management Plan
The long term goal for the SEM Planning process is to enable the campus to optimize 1 student
success through appropriate allocation of campus resources, evaluation of internal as well as
environmental factors, and effective and continuous measurement of current programs and
procedures. Enrollment goals that are aligned with the University’s mission and appropriately
articulated should lead to a campus climate that is conducive to excellence in teaching and
learning. While California’s challenging budget climate will not support growth in the short
term, the SEM plan will enable the university to strategically manage enrollment in a way that
supports the University’s mission and goals.

CSUCI STRATEGIC ENROLLMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR 2009-10 - REVISED
CAMPUS ENROLLMENT TARGET BETWEEN 2957 AND 3150 FTE
All students
The priority filing period will end on November 30, 2009, at midnight. CI will no
longer accept applications from first time freshmen or from transfer students after
November 30th. The campus is charged with flattening growth with an annualized
enrollment target >2957 and <3150 fte.
Spring 2010
The campus enrolled 3853 students (3299 fte) in fall 09. Expected continuation
rates to spring are 86% for undergrads and 71% for post bacs. The campus closed to all
categories of students except Postbacs and new student spring enrollment is expected to
be close to 50 fte. This will bring the campus to an annualized total for 2009-10 to 3081, a
reduction of 70 fte from last year.

Regional Students:
All fully qualified freshman and transfer applicants who are from the region,
who meet both the minimum CSU eligibility requirements and file completion
deadlines, will be offered provisional admission to the University. To be considered
“fully qualified” students will have completed all requirements by the end of the spring
2009 semester. Documentation deadlines are as follows:

Application through Mentor – November 30, 2009
In-progress transcript – December 14
ELM/EPT testing – May 1
Intent to Enroll – May 1
Orientation – May 21
Final Transcripts – July 16
Wait List
Transfer applicants who are otherwise admissible, but who do not meet any one
of these deadlines will be put on a wait list and will be invited to move from the wait
list as space becomes available in the major they declared on Mentor. For freshman
applicants, the declared major is not relevant to the waitlist process; freshmen will be
moved from the waitlist on a space available basis.
Students from Out of the Region2
CI is not an impacted campus and students who do not live in CSUCI’s service area as
defined by the Chancellor’s Office are welcome to apply. However, per the Chancellor’s
Office directive (AA-2008-05) “local area applicants must be accorded the highest
priority for admission to un-impacted admissions categories, and other applicants may
be “wait-listed” pending the determination of enrollment capacity and/or the meeting
of admissions requirements.”
Out of region students will be admitted after all regional students have received notice
of their admission and have been given a reasonable opportunity to submit intent to
enroll paperwork and a deposit. All deadlines apply.
Impaction
The nursing program is the only designated impacted program at CI and the
rules of impaction require that applicants to the nursing program apply to the
University during the priority filing period. Students admitted to the nursing program
must be regularly admissible to the University; supplemental criteria will be applied to
determine their eligibility for the nursing program. Second baccalaureate students who
are not admitted to the nursing program will not be admitted to the University.
CI’s community college service area includes the Ventura Community College District; Santa
Barbara City College; and Alan Hancock Community College. High school districts include all of
Ventura County as well as the Carpentaria and Santa Barbara school districts in Santa Barbara
County and the Las Virgenes school district in Los Angeles County.

CSU Channel Islands is not accepting applications from any of the categories noted in
the Chancellor’s Office directive (AA-2008-05)
 Lower division transfer applicants (except for nursing)
 Upper division transfer applicants who are not fully eligible for admission
 Applicants seeking a second baccalaureate degree (except nursing)
 Unclassified post baccalaureate applicants
While the highest priority is given to qualified regional students, the campus mission
includes enrolling a diverse student body that will closely replicate the demographics of
the county and offer students an educational experience within a student population
that is diverse and includes students from out of the state and out of the country.
1. Campus open to Non-California residents (current population 10)
2. Campus open to International students (current population 12)
3. Campus will continue to qualify as Hispanic-serving institution (HSI) and will
increase enrollment of Hispanic students (currently 25.58%)
4. Campus will develop a comprehensive plan for Veterans (currently 63)
5. Campus will develop communications and programs to increase enrollment of lowincome students
6. Demographic distribution will closely replicate that of the county
7. Targets for enrollment by major will be established by Academic Affairs
Freshman students
The criteria to be applied in the selection of the students invited to enroll will be as
follows:
A. Region
Highest priority consideration will be given to students who apply during the
initial filing period and are graduates of high schools in Ventura County,
southern Santa Barbara County and northern Los Angeles County*. All
applicants whose GPA is 2.8+ will be provisionally admitted on self-report.
B. Eligibility
Only fully qualified high school graduates will be considered for admission to
the University. Special admission will be closely monitored by the Director of
Admission and will not exceed quotas established by the Chancellor.

C. Transfer Pathways3 will be discontinued – Except in extraordinary circumstances
and due to the Chancellor’s Office directive not to accept lower division
applicants, students will be advised to complete lower division work at the
community college and reapply as an upper-division transfer.
D. Non-resident – It is the campus intention to enroll approximately 50 nonresident students, some portion of which will be freshmen.
Steps CSUCI will follow:
1. CSUCI will close to all undergraduate applications at the close of the initial
filing period on November 30, 2009.
2. Regional students whose self-reported GPA is 2.8 or higher will be
provisionally admitted based on this self-reported data.
3. Admissible students will receive an offer of provisional admission with an
“Intent to Enroll” form. Provisional admission does not become clear
admission (or denial) until after the receipt and evaluation of official
documents.
4. Admitted students who wish to attend CSUCI must submit a $100 deposit
and a form indicating their Intent to enroll”, which activates their ability to
apply for housing and to participate in orientation and advising workshops.
5. Freshmen who are admitted to the University and who have submitted an
intent-to-enroll must register for Orientation to confirm their interest in
attending CSUCI. The university assumes that admitted students who do
not register for orientation have selected another campus to attend in the
fall. Admitted students who missed the deadline to submit their application
for orientation will be put on a wait-list administered by the admissions
office.
6. While the University is obligated to admit all eligible students who apply
during the open filing period, capacity is limited and the campus will be
3
Transfer Pathways is a program in which a limited number of local students whose
transcripts indicate the ability to succeed at the University level, but whose college
preparatory subject requirements falls below the range of acceptability will be considered
for admission. Through a contract with the admissions office, prospective freshmen
address their deficiencies at the community college and, upon successful completion of all
requirements delineated in the contract, will be admitted to the University for the spring
term as a lower division transfer.

unable to accommodate students who fail to meet published deadlines. The
campus will cease accepting “intent” forms when capacity has been reached.
7. Since the University receives many more applications than can be
accommodated, admitted students who do not meet published deadlines for
“intents” and orientation may be placed on a wait-list that is maintained by
the admissions office.
8. Freshman students who are admitted to the University may apply to the
nursing program in spring of their freshman year. Admission to the
University does not guarantee admission to the nursing program. Based on
established, published supplemental criteria, the nursing program admits a
select number of students who are enrolled at the University as pre-nursing
majors.
9. Students who are not exempt must take the ELM/EPT before the end of
May, 2010. Students who have not completed appropriate prerequisites,
including the ELM/EPT will not be allowed to register for classes. Students
who take the ELM/EPT after the May deadline will be waitlisted by the
Admissions Office.
C. Sorting by Major
Although the Admissions office sorts incoming applications by declared majors, this is
not considered a significant variable at this time for freshman applicants. The
Enrollment Management Plan authorizes the University to sort applicants who apply
after the priority filing period by major and the University may choose to prioritize
applications received after the initial filing period for majors that are undersubscribed.
Freshmen may not be admitted to the nursing program; however, they may apply to the
university as “pre-nursing”. Students who are accepted to the university in the “prenursing” program will be advised that their admission to the University as a “prenursing” major is not a guarantee of admission to the nursing program. Based on
established, published supplemental criteria, the nursing program admits a select
number of students who are enrolled at the University as pre-nursing majors.
Transfer students – undergraduates
Except for those students who are applying to the nursing program, all fully qualified
transfer candidates meeting the minimum CSU eligibility requirements who apply to
the University will be offered provisional admission.
All transfer applicants are required to meet the admissions requirements by the end of
the spring term for fall admissions and the end of summer for spring admissions.

A. Priority will be given as follows:
1. Students from local community colleges who have entered into and successfully
completed all stipulations of the Transfer Agreement Guarantee (TAG). Students
who complete a TAG are bound by posted deadlines.
2. Fully qualified applicants from Community Colleges in the CI service area4* who
have completed 60 units, including 39 units of lower-division GE (Liberal Studies
majors may complete the coursework in the approved transfer agreement in lieu
of this requirement) by the end of spring 2010.
3. Fully qualified applicants from outside CI’s region who have completed 60 units,
including 39 units of lower-division GE (Liberal Studies majors may complete
the coursework in the approved transfer agreement in lieu of this requirement)
by the end of spring 2009.
4. Based on ability to accommodate, the applications of California residents from out
of the region who have 60 units and have completed coursework by the end of
spring 2009 will be considered.
5. Non-resident– It is the campus intention to enroll non-resident students, some
portion of which will be transfer students.
6. International – International students do not count towards the campus FTE
target. A new program for the 2008-9 will allow the campus to enroll a limited
number (50) of international students on F visas, who have completed all their
lower division transfer work at local community colleges.
7. All applicants to the university are expected to have all admissions requirements
completed by the end of spring for fall admissions and the end of summer for
spring admissions. Applicants who do not complete the admissions
requirements will not be offered admission to the university.
Graduate and Post Baccalaureate Students
Students admitted to graduate or credential programs must be fully admissible to the
University or be admitted as a “special” based on a documented, departmental
decision.
