Institutional Updates
The new 1,896 student record builds on last year's record enrollment and comes as colleges and universities across the country navigate changing demographics and evolving student expectations.
This growth is driven by a large incoming class of 269 freshmen and 78 new transfer students — one of the largest incoming classes in the last seven years.
In the State of the University address, President Rebecca Cunningham emphasized that our future will be shaped not by the challenges we face, but by how we respond to them.
