locations. The remaining 90 credits are completed with the partner university and accepted as transfer credit by Keuka College, in accordance with the institutional policy of accepting a maximum of 90 transferable credits from four-year colleges. At some partner schools, graduates of the program receive a bachelor’s degree conferred by Keuka College and also earn a degree from their home university, thus receiving a dual degree (Vietnam universities, Wenzhou University, and Jimei University- Overseas Education College do not provide dual degrees). These dual degrees are recognized by both the United States of America and the home country. The curriculum, developed by the Keuka College business program faculty, fulfills all the requirements for a Keuka College B.S. in Management degree, and is reviewed regularly by the business faculty as part of their annual assessment process. Keuka’s partnerships in China began in 2002. Keuka College’s partner universities in China include Yunnan University of Finance & Economics, Tianjin University of Science & Technology, Jimei University of Fujian Province (Chengyi College and Overseas Education College), and Wenzhou University in Zhejiang Province. In 2010-11 there were 3500 students enrolled in the Keuka China program, with 1082 graduating, and in 2011-12, there were 2939 students enrolled, with 657 graduating. Current enrollment is 2711 students, with a Fall 2012 intake of 626 students at 3 universities and 657 students on track for graduation in 2013. From 2003 to 2012, the overall graduation rate for the Keuka China program was 85% and the fouryear completion rate for 2012 graduating class was 78% (students have two more years in which to complete degree requirements) (Appendix 5.7 Keuka China Enrollments Graduation Totals 2003-2012). In recent years, enrollment in the Keuka China Program has declined, reflecting a changing landscape in Chinese higher education, with increased competition for students and reduced government enrollment quotas for foreign programs. Additionally, the College has decided to cease enrollment at the Wenzhou University campus for fall 2012, as it has had difficulty in both meeting its quota for student numbers and its quality of academic preparedness. The Wenzhou program will close in 2015 after the 167 currently enrolled students have graduated. In 2009, Keuka created a similar program for Vietnam. Keuka began enrolling students in March 2010 with their partner the International School of Vietnam National University (ISVNU) in Hanoi, Vietnam, and in October 2011, the Vietnam National University, Ho Chi Minh University of Science, Ho Chi Minh City, for a B.S. in Management. For Fall 2012, the Hanoi program has enrolled 333 students, and the Ho Chi Minh City program has enrolled 172 students, for a total of 505 students. Admissions for the overseas programs are coordinated with the partner universities which distribute application materials to students. The partner university reviews all application materials to verify complete and appropriate documentation. Students are admitted based on university admissions requirements that utilize college entrance exam scores. After verifying that all student application files are complete and accurate, each student file is sent to the Keuka College Registrar’s office. The Registrar’s Office at Keuka reviews the contents of the student files, which includes all completed application material and confirms acceptance with the partner university. For both the China and Vietnam programs, Keuka administrative staff members visit the campuses regularly to meet with students and share information about the Keuka B.S. in Management program (Appendix 5.8 Keuka Vietnam Student Handbook 2011). The partner schools in China and Vietnam coordinate the intake of students with the Vice President for Enrollment Management. This ensures that sufficient resources are available with Page 8 of 39 Chapter 5: Admissions, Retention & Support
oth the partner school and Keuka to properly deliver the program and serve student needs. The Vice President for Enrollment Management and International Relations takes into account these international enrollment numbers for purposes of planning and budget. Global Education/International Program The Global Education/International program is designed to bring international students throughout the world to the Keuka campus for undergraduate and graduate study. The Center for Global Education was created in 2010 to oversee and support the growth in international student enrollment. For the 2012-2013 academic year, 79 international students have enrolled. In recent years, we have had international students on campus from the following countries: Malawi, China, Vietnam, Japan, South Africa, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, New Zealand, Nigeria, Sweden, Lesotho, and Canada. The majority of our international students are from our partner institutions in China and Vietnam; they come to the College for either their junior or senior year. The longterm plan is to grow the international student population to 150 students for a diverse country representation. The International Student Admission policies are outlined in the Keuka College Record and the Center for Global Educations Admissions Policy and Procedures (Appendix 5.9 Center for Global Education Admissions Policy and Procedures). International students needing additional English language preparation (for example, with less than a 5.0 IELTS or 500 TOEFL paperbased/50 internet-based score) may enroll in the Summer ESL Institute, a non-credit bearing sixweek program providing twenty hours of language instruction per week. Recruitment of these international students is accomplished with the help of faculty members and administrators, working in concert with the Center for Global Education office. The international students are supported through the enrollment and application process by two enrollment staff members based at the Keuka Park campus. Students interested in applying initiate contact on our website with an enrollment advisor. The enrollment advisor works with the student from the point of inquiry through enrollment. Required application materials, admission requirements and policies, visa documents and other required documentation are clearly listed on the campus website at http://international.keuka.edu/undergraduate-admissions/. The overall goal of the Center for Global Education is to recruit and support international students, which is consistent with the mission of the College to grow an international and diverse population of students. Having this exposure to an international student population on campus allows for interaction in both the classroom and student life arenas for our traditional domestic students and vice versa. Given the importance of tuition revenues to the operating budget of the College and to achieving the College mission, assessment of the recent reorganization and integration of the Admissions and Marketing functions and their impact on recruitment and enrollment across all areas, with an emphasis on assessing traditional enrollment success, is a key recommendation of both the Long Range Strategic Planning Committee and the Middle States Self-Study Committee. Financial Aid How to finance a college education is a major consideration in the decision-making process for students and their families. Keuka provided approximately $8.7M in 2009-10, $10.5M in 2010- 11, and $12M in 2011-2012 in institutional grants for students. This clearly demonstrates the College’s commitment to recruiting, retaining, and supporting students financially who seek a Page 9 of 39 Chapter 5: Admissions, Retention & Support
