The Enrollment Analysis report provides a view into the college-bound database with a focus on your enrolled students. Enrollment is measured based on the Total Market data matched to data from the National Student Clearinghouse. Using the available filters, this report will help answer questions about your institution visibility such as:
- Where do I currently have success enrolling minority, female, engineering students?
- In my primary states, from which zip codes do I enroll the most students interested in Nursing?
- For students enrolling in my institution within my region, what are Academic Programs that are most popular and how are they trending?
Filter Options
The geographic filters shown allow you to focus on specific States, Geomarkets, Counties, or Zip Codes. When editing any filters, you will be prompted to Show Results which will apply the selected filters and update each of the visualizations based on your selection.
In addition, selecting the Add Filter option will provide access to 14 additional filters to more precisely identify the data being researched.
Visualizations
The Enrollment Analysis report includes the following visualizations and options:
Enrollment Analysis Summary Map
This visualization displays a map with the data selected in your filters by State (default), Geomarket, County, or Zip Code. The map will initially display the most recent Grad Year but you also have the option to switch to previous years using the toggle. State, Geomarket and County maps will display the specified geographic areas. The Zip Code view will provide a heat map showing the areas with the highest concentration of students. The map also allows for zooming in or out using the onscreen buttons, your mouse, or touchscreen depending on your device.
By moving the cursor over each geographic area, you will see the name of the area as well as the volume and percentage of students within the area. Clicking on a geographic area will display this information on screen with the option to drill-down to the appropriate Detail Report (either State Detail, Geomarket Detail, or County Detail).
