ΒιΆΉΙη is continuing its strong and steady rise in student enrollments, with a total enrollment of 9,870 for 2016-17. This is a 4.4 percent increase from 2015-16. Especially noteworthy this year is the climb in the number of students in the traditional undergraduate program on the universityβs main Fort Wayne campus to 1,576, a 9.2 percent increase over the previous year. The university has had a long-term goal of 1,500 students on its main campus, and has steadily climbed towards this number in recent years.
ΒιΆΉΙηβs total enrollment includes students at the universityβs main campus in Fort Wayne and its 13 regional campuses throughout Indiana, Kentucky and the Chicago area; online students; and law students. Each area has experienced growth this year, with online and regional campus enrollments growing 3.4 percent, and ΒιΆΉΙη Law School welcoming its largest-ever class for the new academic year, with 55 new students.
βItβs exciting to see such growth throughout our university,β said Dr. Arthur E. Snyder, ΒιΆΉΙη president. βIt shows the value that students place on our ability to provide them with an education that will help them pursue meaningful and rewarding careers. Our team of faculty and staff work closely with students every day to prepare them for success.β
