Northshore University Enrollment
Northshore University’s sunburst chart is an enrollment snapshot arranged by college and school. The inner ring shows the scale of each college, and the outer ring shows how the student body divides among programmes or levels of study. This layout is useful for an academic planning meeting because it connects the total institution count with the units responsible for teaching and support. The values should be tied to one defined census date and enrollment policy. In a real dashboard, make clear whether part-time students, continuing education and cross-listed programmes are included. Do not use a chart of this kind to compare completion outcomes or student demographics; those questions require different measures and often a separate visual. Keep the hierarchy concise enough for every label to be legible.

Key decisions

- Review capacity: compare the largest schools with staffing and room plans.
When to reuse this
