The number of admitted students to the Law School was reduced to about 125 students this fall, but Ferrari said he expects that to increase a bit next year. Another factor in the decrease is that most part-time students are no longer counted in the total student population. A drop in enrollment could affect tuition, since private colleges rely on tuition and room and board rates for 75 to 80 percent of revenue. A small increase in tuition each year is expected, due to inflation. However, Drake has kept tuition increases under inflation for four years, Ferrari said, and last year room and board rates weren't raised.
Drake has plans to curb the decrease in overall enrollment within the next few years.
