STUDENTS POURING IN!
Can you imagine, 3,000 students at Western?! That hasn’t happened since the 1970’s! And it’s coming again! W3000 is an effort to elevate Western’s enrollment to 3,000+ students. Impossible? The thrilling news is we are now on track to reach 3,000 students within the next few years! Western is one of very few schools in Colorado to post increasing enrollment year-over-year for the past three years. And during that time, student retention has risen by 15% to the highest point in recent history, reflecting extraordinary student and parent satisfaction.
WE NEED YOU TO KEEP THE MOMENTUM GOING! Your gift to W3000 will provide:
Scholarships (merit, need, diversity, academic, athletic) Marketing to high school students and guidance counselors (62% of front range high school students have never heard of Western) Support programs for new students, from campus visits to academic success and campus life Retention programs to uplift struggling students with peer and faculty mentors Engaging alumni to reconnect, and tell their Western story to reach the next generation of the Western family
Western is climbing to historic heights -- reestablishing its reputation as a thriving university. Deep pride. Passionate alumni. Community partnership. Changed lives. Discovered dreams. Bright futures. A resurgence of the Western mission that transformed your life and so many others. You love Western. And there has never been a more crucial time to express that than right now. Your gift to W3000 will be matched 1:1 by the Western State Foundation (between now and Dec. 31, 2015) whether it’s $3, $30, $300 or $3,000, to have TWICE THE IMPACT! Your gift of any size will help make W3000 an unstoppable force, lifting Western, its students and the Western Nation to their rightful place...the mountaintop.
