Enrollment and Budget Gap Tiger Teams
Background:
In January 2023, the CSU Chancellor's Office unveiled a plan to reallocate state funds from campuses that are 10% or more below their targets to campuses that are 10% above their targets.
As one of the campuses that are over 10% below target, Cal State East Bay established two new administrative committees or Tiger Teams. Led by teams of administrators, these committees will focus on developing a specific plan and timeline to increase our our California resident undergraduate enrollment, recruitment and retention; and identifying options to close the budget gap.
