Rising to the Moment: Regis College Strategic Plan 2026-2030

Regis College is developing a new strategic plan to guide the university through 2030. Grounded in our mission, values, and vision, the plan will build on Regis’ strengths, address the challenges facing higher education, and position the university for a strong, sustainable future. The framework includes five strategic pillars and supporting goals:

  • Long-Term Financial Sustainability

    • Increase enrollment, net revenue growth, and student retention through high-demand, mission-aligned programs and partnerships. 
    • Expand what Regis College is known for as a leading educational force in the helping professions.  
    • Optimize institutional investments and resources to support long-term financial sustainability.

  • Educating for the Future

    • Ensure academic programs/curricula are relevant, distinct, and responsive to evolving workforce and community needs.
    • Advance teaching and learning practices that reflect today’s learners, technologies and educational environment.
    • Improve students’ career readiness and post-graduation outcomes. 
    • Build strategic partnerships that expand learning, career, and employment opportunities for students.
       

  • Building and Sustaining a Vibrant, Mission-Driven Community of Learning and Service 

    • Foster a culture of lifelong learning, innovation, and continuous improvement.
    • Create a more connected, collaborative, and vibrant campus community that enriches the student experience.
    • Deepen engagement among students, faculty, staff, alumni, trustees, and community partners in advancing Regis’ mission and culture.
    • Attract, develop, and retain talented, mission-committed faculty and staff through competitive recruitment, meaningful professional growth, and a supportive workplace culture.

  • Cultivating a Culture of Philanthropy

    • Increase alumni giving by 2030. 
    • Increase incremental revenue from sponsored programs, grants, and non-alumni giving. 
    • Increase participation in Advancement-sponsored events.

  • Achieving Operational Excellence 

    • Improve operational efficiency and resource stewardship across the university. 
    • Strengthen cross-divisional coordination, accountability, and execution. 

Next Steps

Faculty, staff, students, trustees, alumni, and other members of the Regis community will have opportunities to share their perspectives and help shape the plan. Workshops, surveys, and other forms of engagement will take place throughout the planning process.

The Strategic Planning Steering Committee, representing areas from across the university, will help gather community feedback, guide engagement opportunities, and make recommendations. 

Updates, planning materials, and additional opportunities to participate will be shared on this page as the process moves forward.
