(Terry Bell, WRN) The head of the University of Wisconsin System hopes scholarships will boost enrollment next year.

This fall’s enrollment numbers show most University of Wisconsin campuses lost students compared to last year. Only Madison and Green Bay saw increases. Enrollment at La Crosse was steady, but all other campuses saw declines.

U-W System president Jay Rothman said he hopes the Wisconsin Tuition Promise program will turn the trend around. It starts next fall, and offers scholarships which cover tuition and fees.
