Being a student during the time when SU had 10K, at first, I was one of those Southernites that was frustrated about the enrollment numbers being down. Now, I've grown more optimistic about Southern's future in its leaders and the upcoming higher admissions standards. Sure SU is about to take a bigger enrollment hit; we're expecting it - but the quality of students we will attract will pay off for the school in the future. There are even plans on the table to restructure the physical campus and academic curriculum to serve those more advanced prepared students. Peace. :tup:

True the UOP is making a killing off of undergrad and grad degrees online. When I finished the MBA program from the UOP back in 04, I went to the graduation ceremony in Phoenix and there were at least 1,000+ people getting degress. I met people from all over the world getting degrees from there.
JSU was growing quickly back in the day from 6,000 to 8,000 in a five year period but now we have higher standards and we've partnered with Hinds Community College with a 2+2 program. SU will increase their numbers with quality students. I prefer quality over quantity anyday. JSU only has enough dorm space for 2,739 students, if we had more dorms we would could reach the 10,000 mark easily.
I saw where NCAT now has 10,000 which was a hugh jump from 8,000 in the last two years. Quicker higher numbers in two years can be detrimental for the university if the students aren't prepared.
Texas Southern has a horrible retention rate. They are ranked in the bottom feeder schools in retention but back in the day they wanted numbers (quantity over quality). This method has came back to bite them in the butts.

tomcat1, ever thought our retention rate was attributed to our once open enrollment admissions policy that we no longer use? Since the policy was changed in 2008, it will be a phase we go thru where our retention rates will systematically increase. Check retention rates with University of Houston - Downtown (a current open enrollment university.

Easily. But one will have to have a very great almost fault-tolerant computing/telecommunic infrastructure in place :swink:. lol UofP made that investment eons ago. :read: BTW, PVAMU does have "distance learning" and has had it for a while now but it never expanded to include quite a few other undergrad degrees outside of nursing, one of PV's known fors. I know factually during the early-90s, a distance program was setup for mathematics undergrad; however, since being forced, understandibly, to function w/in the consistent realm of the Texas A&M University system, that program was disbanded. So, unless aTm, our system, approves it, we won't have it @ PVAMU, other than the nursing program.

You know, when tomcat posts you automatically know to pull up GOOGLE because that's what you'll need to get the truth...
I called the Director of Enrollment Management and of course the official Fall 2010 figures aren't certified yet so he didn't give a figure. When I mentioned 10,858 he chuckled a bit.
What I can confirm/certify are the Spring 2009 Texas Southern enrollment at 9,099 (with reference) http://em.tsu.edu/ie/facts_spring.php
UPDATE: as of yesterday unofficial Fall 2010 enrollment is at 9,620 per Texas Southern University Office of Enrollment Management.
Okay, now you can go on with your degrading tomcat in 3..... 2..... 1..... GO!!!

Grambling's numbers went down back in the early 2000's when they were placed on probation from SACS. They lost over half their students.

For Profit institutions are taking a huge hit lately in the media...
For-profit colleges fighting proposal to cut aid
Feds' plan to limit loans for programs with high-default rates called unfair
By JEANNIE KEVER
HOUSTON CHRONICLE
Sept. 6, 2010, 11:30PM
The federal government is proposing to cut financial aid for some students in the fastest-growing sector of higher education — for-profit colleges and universities — saying they put students on a fast track to failure.
The schools are fighting back, arguing the proposal would hurt the neediest students.
"This is really redlining," said Kevin Modany, CEO of ITT Educational Services, which has programs in 38 states, including Texas. "The data clearly demonstrates a disproportionate impact on minorities, nontraditional students, older Americans."
The proposal would limit financial aid and student loans for programs where fewer than 35 percent of graduates repay their loans.
It would apply to students in programs run by for-profit schools — many of them publicly traded, including ITT Technical Institute, Everest Institute, Westwood College and the University of Phoenix — as well as community college programs that don't lead to a two-year degree, including many job training programs.
Both sectors attract many minority and low-income students, including those who are the first in their families to attend college.
But virtually all of the programs at risk of losing federal funding are run by for-profit schools.
