Strong reputation attracts students to nursing, biology, engineering<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Though many universities across the country reported dips in first-year enrollment due to uncertainties related to the COVID-19 pandemic, Good said. \u201cWhile our prospective students and families were deeply impacted by COVID-19 affecting enrollment plans for many, thanks to a student-centered approach from admissions, faculty, athletics and student services we were able to enroll a strong and resilient class,” Good said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
