Iowa State set another spring enrollment record this semester. Our 33,659 total students reflects an increase of 865 students over last spring's previous record. Undergraduate spring enrollment is up 847 students, graduate enrollment is up 58 students, professional enrollment is down 10 students and the number of post docs is down 30.
Following December commencement, spring semester enrollments are notably smaller than the previous fall. Fall 2015's overall enrollment -- an all-time high -- was 36,001.
Overall, the number of off-campus students (those enrolled only in distance education course sections) decreased by just two students from spring 2015 to spring 2016 (1,466 and 1,464, respectively). Nineteen fewer undergraduate off-campus only students were nearly offset by 17 additional off-campus only grad students.
