Enrollment remains healthy

With fall classes under way, we have an early look at enrollment numbers across our campuses. Overall, the total number of students is strong and steady throughout the system, according to preliminary figures, which will be updated later in the fall. Most eye-catching is the continued growth at the University of Colorado Colorado Springs, which is enjoying yet another record-setting year for enrollment. The UCCS student body grew 6 percent compared to last year, with 9,850 students now enrolled, which is a new record. Enjoying an even bigger percentage increase this fall is the freshman class, with 1,457 representing an increase of about 8 percent compared to last year's record-breaking freshman class. In the past 10 years, UCCS enrollment has increased by more than 32 percent.

The University of Colorado Boulder counts slightly less than 30,000 students, while the University of Colorado Denver has 14,300. Both are on par with last year's numbers. The University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus has some 3,600 students, a slight increase over last year.
