- Factors affecting NTR goal Increased competition in primary and
secondary markets Base Population (Domestic freshmen) did not
perform as expected Largest change in actual vs. predicted behavior
was among the wealthiest students Illinois Wesleyan will have
diminished returns on offering these students additional money
through aid regimen

full-time admission staff in China Partnering with Ruffalo-Cody to
increase apps Student search success Womens lacrosse and track
Financial aid strategy adjustments
- Slide 12
- Additional factors to consider: Acknowledge trade-off on
headcount, per student revenue & aggregate NTR Reexamine levers
(lessons learned, out of state, affinity, appeals, etc.) Increase
demand for Illinois Wesleyan before spending merit/aid
