MSU Sets Spring 2018 Enrollment Record


Posted: February 12, 2018 by Mark L. Corner

Montana State University annouced it's spring headcount this week: 15,496 students, a record and one that marks 10 straight years of spring enrollment growth.

This spring's number is up almost 300 students compared to the same time last year, according to Tony Cameau, the university's registrar.  University leaders credit the growth chiefly to MSU's slate of programs and initiatives aimed at keeping students in school and on track for graduation.

Of the 15,496 students this spring, 13,610 are undergraduates and 1,886 are graduate students.  A total of 9,650, or 62.3 percent, of MSU's students were Montana residents.  

MSU also set an enrollment record this past fall with 16,703 students.  Historically, spring enrollments are always a little less than the fall count.

MSU's success is one of the factors that keep the real estate market vibrant in the Bozeman area.
