Disappointed I didn’t see UA in the news today. Notre Dame College in South Euclid is shutting down. They are partnering with 9 schools to help transition students. Cleveland State, Kent State, and various other universities listed, but not Akron.
Cost of attendance is approx. 30k for Ohio residents alone. Even just 200 students from there would give us 6million in annual revenue + all the other economic value a student brings to the campus area and potential future value. A student taking up one extra seat in a half empty classroom costs virtually nothing to the school. Straight profit.
When we’re like 50% of our peak enrollment, have well documented financial issues (that seem to be addressed somewhat thankfully), and competition is tough for students, I don’t understand why you wouldn’t pounce at every opportunity to better your situation.
