Predicting the Uptake of a University’s Offers of Places

Year: 2014
Type: article
Abstract: Institutions such as Universities spend considerable resources in recruiting and following up on applicants.Unfortunately, much wastage results from the sending out of follow-up letters to students who never arrive, and who perhaps had applied only as a form of insurance; and also in hiring instructors and scheduling classes when the attendance is uncertain.In a competitive market, a predictive model of the uptake of offers made might well be helpful.
