Abstract

In this essay, we propose a method of forecasting enrollments based on fuzzy time series which is improved by Saxena, Sharma& Easo. Some sections are improved, Such as the setting of universe of discourse, construction of fuzzy set and Inverse fuzzy number, and forecasting formula. We still used the 22 years freshmen’s enrollments data of the University of Alabama to illustrate the forecasting process. The result shows that proposed method provide the smallest AFER and MSE.
