Saint Anselm College's strategic planning program engaged members across our learning community and external stakeholders in an examination of the key college objectives for the next three to five years.

The strategic planning program was conducted through these major milestones:

  • Spring 2014: Cabinet meeting kickoff
  • Summer 2014: Internal environmental scan and identification of the College's key needs
  • Fall 2014: Grouping of the College's needs in terms of achieving academic excellence, enhancing the student experience, enriching a thriving community, and raising our profile
  • Winter 2014-15: Testing of need areas with the Board of Trustees and other key constituents
  • Spring and Fall 2015: Elaboration of the academic plan
  • Winter 2015-16: Presentation of key strategic initiatives to the Board of Trustees
  • Spring 2016: Costing and prioritization
  • Fall and Winter 2016-17: Final review and adoption of the Strategic Plan by the Board of Trustees
