A cornerstone of continuous improvement is comprehensive planning for the future, and part of the comprehensive planning for the University System of Georgia is strategic enrollment planning. Following are the proposed institutional enrollment targets. Each target represents a range of plus or minus two percent of the target. For an institution to meet its enrollment target, its enrollment for any given year must remain within the corridor created by the that year's target number plus or minus two percent. These targets will be rolling five year targets; each year a new year will be added and the remaining four years reviewed to insure they are still appropriate.
