SUBJECT:
2002-2003 FTE-2 Estimates
DUE: 5:00 p.m. EST, February 26, 2003
An Enrollment Estimating Conference is tentatively scheduled for
March 5, 2003, to review the most recent 2002-2003 FTE Estimates
for the community colleges. The FTE-2 Estimates have been
generated from the Student Data Base Summer and Fall End-of-Term
and Winter/Spring Beginning-of-Term data.
The Division is asking each institution to review the FTE-2 Estimates
and to make adjustments as needed. When reviewing the estimates, it
is important that the estimates by program area be accurate as well as
the college total. Estimates will only include lower level FTE.
Colleges with upper level courses need to report the upper level FTE
separately.
The instructions for making adjustments to the FTE estimates (A.1)
and the instructions for downloading/uploading data (A.2) are attached
with this memo. The 2002-2003 FTE-2 Enrollment Estimates
Submission Form (attachment A.3)
must
be filled out and returned by
325 W. GAINES STREET • SUITE 1314 • TALLAHASSEE, FL 32399-0400 • (850) 488-1721 • www.dcc.firn.edu
