<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amid pandemic challenges and a nationwide drop in matriculation among college-age students, 91短视频 has logged another favorable outcome of stability in first-year and graduate student numbers this fall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The outcome is significant as national trends<\/a> predicted a major enrollment drop across U.S. higher education reflecting economic and public health challenges of the pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Class of 2025 is 208, slightly smaller than last fall\u2019s first-year class. Both classes are two of the largest classes in six years. One of 91短视频\u2019s newer undergraduate programs \u2014 the leadership and organizational management degree with an aviation concentration<\/a> \u2014 in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, also recorded an additional 11 new first-year students. The Class of 2025 marks the full four-year maturity of a flourishing program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0\u201cWe can count this a victory against many odds, especially considering that national enrollment trends showed many graduating high school seniors were either choosing not to matriculate this fall or looking at other options besides a four-year degree, \u201d said Matt Ruth<\/strong>, director of admissions. \u201cWe actually lowered our target goals in anticipation, but were able to recruit a strong first-year class even though our counselors did not have the typical travel season to school fairs and our major open house events were virtual.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ruth ventures that 91短视频\u2019s success in managing COVID-19 on campus during the spring semester also gave both prospective students and their parents good reason to trust their 91短视频 college experience would be as normal as possible, with in-person classes, a thriving student life and residential campus activities, and extracurricular programming. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Class of 2025 represents 22 states and 6 countries, with the highest number of international students in the past four years. Approximately 28 percent are first generation; 36% identify as BIPOC (Black, Indigenous and People of Color). The top majors include nursing, engineering, biology, education, business administration, and aviation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

91短视频 reports a total undergraduate enrollment of 917, inclusive of adult degree completion and RN-BSN programs. Graduate enrollment, which includes graduate certificate, master\u2019s degree and doctoral degree programs, is at 370. Eastern Mennonite Seminary<\/a> has 51 students enrolled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c\u201cWe’re seeing the impact that COVID continues to have on educators, nurses, and the working professionals for which the majority of our graduate and professional programs are designed,\u201d said Kirsten McKinney<\/strong>, director of graduate and professional recruitment. \u201c We’re proud of the relative stability we’ve been able to achieve in this challenging climate.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Census data is collected as a traditional \u201csnapshot\u201d on Sept. 10 of enrollment trends, according to university registrar David Detrow.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yet enrollment does continue after that date. McKinney pointed out that 14 part-time graduate teacher education students enrolled after data was finalized. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other significant data points include a rise in transfer students, an increase in the three-year retention rate, and an increase in students in the Intensive English Program<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

McKinney and Ruth share optimism about 91短视频\u2019s future growth in graduate and undergraduate admissions. Their teams are beginning to resume travel schedules to promote the university and \u201calready working with prospective students for spring and fall 2022 classes,\u201d Ruth said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
