Fall enrollment exceeds record

September 15, 2006 by Jared Fields

By Jared Fields, Managing Editor

ACU released official 12th-day record-high enrollment numbers Wednesday for the fall semester with 4,796 students.

This fall’s enrollment beats the previous record of 4,786 in fall 2004 and is an increase of 93 students from last year.

The enrollment includes 632 graduate students, 958 freshman and 4,164 undergraduates of students from 51 states and territories and 57 nations.

ACU president Dr. Royce Money said, “This is a great way to end our Centennial year and begin our second century.”

Robert Heil, assistant vice president for enrollment and strategic marketing operations, said in a press release that incoming freshmen are strong students and attracted to the programs here.

“ACU continues to attract an increasing number of students with high ACT and SAT test scores, strong high school records and high involvement in their schools and churches,” Heil said.
