College faces $700,000 loss due to drop in enrollment - Callie Jones, Journal-Advocate
Northeastern Junior College is looking at a little more than $700,000 in anticipated revenue from tuition that they will not be collecting this school year because of the drop in enrollment. President Jay Lee gave an update on enrollment and the budget at an NJC Advisory Council meeting on Thursday. Right now the college has 1,261.7 full-time equivalent (FTE) students, 172 fewer students than last year at this time. When they built the budget for fiscal year 2013 they anticipated enrollment would be down about four percent, at 1,450 FTE; however, it's actually down about 12 percent.
