MU admissions director discusses student recruitment efforts in Fulton

Officials at the University of Missouri said there has been an increase in applications for the upcoming fall semester.

Chuck May, executive director of admissions, spoke to alumni in Fulton on Saturday about what the admissions office has been doing to boost enrollment at the university.

“We have staff visiting every school in Missouri for the first time ever, and I knew that was something that was going to be great for them to learn about,” he said. “It’s something I know guidance counselors and families around the state have been very happy to see us out and about in their communities.”

May said the university has also started new scholarship initiatives, which include covering tuition and fees for students who are eligible for Pell Grants. The university is also waving application fees for FEMA-affected counties in Texas.

Admissions numbers haven’t been released yet.
