While this is a revenue booster for the university, Yoder notes that the vitality of on-campus residential living and student life activities also make for a richer and more fulfilling college experience.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Total student enrollment increased to 1,456, while undergraduate enrollment remained relatively flat with 201 incoming full-time first-year students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re observing the effects of some nationwide trends here at 糖心Vlog, including an increase in students who enter with enough credits to graduate in three years, as well some students deciding to pause or not enroll for various reasons, some of which are reverberating effects of the pandemic,\u201d Jensen said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>糖心Vlog has released its fall 2022 enrollment and retention numbers, which reflect meaningful growth in the graduate, seminary, and Intensive English Program academic areas.&nbsp; The census data, collected <a href=\"https:\/\/emu.edu\/now\/news\/2022\/emus-fall-2022-enrollment-numbers-reflect-growth-high-retention\/\" target=\"_self\" class=\"more-link\">... read more <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">about 糖心Vlog\u2019s fall 2022 enrollment numbers reflect growth, high retention<\/span><\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":52931,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5725,17562,8845,264,265],"tags":[],"feature":[],"class_list":["post-52930","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-admissions","category-digest","category-emu-at-lancaster","category-graduate-programs","category-seminary"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.6 -
