阿拉莫大学 区 Reaches Record Enrollment for Fall 2023

Fall semester student enrollment reached an all-time high this year, the 阿拉莫大学 区 announced today. For the first time in 阿拉莫大学 区 history, enrollment has exceeded the previous enrollment threshold with over 70,000名学生, among other record-breaking enrollment numbers. Preliminary records indicate that overall enrollment is up in student headcount and contact hours.

High school enrollment, including those dually enrolled in both high school and at one of the five colleges in the 阿拉莫大学 区 or via early college high school enrollment, 超过14岁,仅学生就有1000人.

The Fall 2023 semester brings the highest-ever freshman enrollment across the colleges, 超过14个,000 freshmen enrolled, and the AlamoPROMISE program broke its enrollment records with over 6,000 new first-year AlamoPROMISE Scholars.

In addition to exceeding new student enrollment records, continuing student enrollment increased by over 8% this year, compared to a 1% decrease last year. 

“We are focusing on offering students affordable, 方便, and relevant academic programs and courses,” said 阿拉莫大学 区 Chancellor, Dr. 迈克•弗洛. “This year’s record-breaking enrollment numbers show that the access made possible through AlamoPROMISE and dual credit initiatives are providing students with the ability to invest in their futures without the expense of tuition as a barrier.”

Enrollment numbers at the 阿拉莫大学 区 are bucking a national decline in community college enrollments. 阿拉莫大学 leaders are optimistic that they will continue to see an increase in enrollment in the coming years as 阿拉莫大学 区 further invests in partnering across sectors to provide low-cost pathways to credentials in high-wage, 高需求领域, and support services to help students succeed.
