Fall 2009 enrollment blows away estimates!!!

OVER 7000 students!

7024 to be exact. No wonder everyone was busy and the halls are full. This is the largest enrollment we have ever had. Last fall we were at 6167 so we’ve had a 14% increase. Our credit hours are at 63156. That is up 7% from last fall. These numbers are unbelievable. I never really thought I’d see the day we went over 7000. Everything is up from last fall…students taking online classes are up 47%, minority enrollment is up 14%, males are up 9%, females up 18%, international up 55%, baccalaureate up 12%, career up 7%, student from out local high schools up 11%, etc., etc. I wanted to give a massive "thanks" to everyone in the Student Services area for all of their work this past 5 months with the multitude of students that have enrolled. This is an unprecedented moment that might not happen again. The amount of students that had to be dealt with was staggering but everyone came through with flying colors.
