curriculum with a 2.0+ GPA (2.5+ out of state)• Set out by Kansas Board of Regents; will
change with 2015 summer term enrollment
Admission by exception• Up to 10% of the incoming class• KS Legislature passed a law requiring an
“individual plan for success” for each student admitted by exception
Our program• Mandatory for these students to enroll at KSU• Based on the concept of intrusive advising • Students must sign a learning contract;
noncompliance can lead to dismissal from KSU• 1st semester they enroll in the Undergraduate
Experience course & 2 companion courses• 13 credit cap for first semester
Learning Contract• Meet with Academic Counselor every other
week • Mandatory attendance at all classes• Other requirements including enrollment, etc.• 2 semester mandatory program, then
becomes voluntary support for rest of their time at KSU
Fall 2014 P4S cohort• Looking very similar to 2013• Currently, 88 students have been admitted by
exception• Average ACT 19 (range 14-20)• Average core credits earned 12 (range 10.5-
13)• Average core HS GPA 2.65 (range 1.83- 3.75)
Fall 2014 P4S cohort by colleges• As of today, 41 have enrolled in O/E
– Agriculture – 5 – Architecture Planning & Design – 1 – Arts & Sciences – 28 (Open Option – 21)– Business – 3 – Education – 1– Engineering – 0 – Human Ecology – 2 – Technology (Salina) – 1
O/E: What to know• Our program has special enrollment
requirements for first semester, so we enroll them for first semester– They will not need an advising appointment at O/E– They will have a “Plan for Success” hold in iSIS
• All P4S students will be grouped with their chosen major, be assigned an academic advisor in their college, and participate in O/E activities like normal– They must meet major requirements (Architecture,
Engineering)
O/E: What to know• We have worked out programming and O/E
logistical details with a representative from each college– Some colleges have elected to have one-on-one
advisor visits with these students during O/E– Other colleges have asked us to tell our students
to make appointments with their academic advisors 3-4 weeks into the semester

We value and appreciate the time you spend to help make Orientation & Enrollment special for new K-State students. We recognize that some students attending the program are still undecided about their final college choice and the experience they have will help make that difference.
