January 25, 2010

According to the office of Enrollment Management at Midland College, Midland College reports an all-time high record enrollment this spring! The current spring number, combined with enrollment from fall flex entry courses (courses that begin after the regular fall semester started) and the Winter Interim session in December/January, means that Midland College enrollment for the spring reporting period totals 6,982! These numbers show an increase of 8.1 percent for spring 2010 over spring 2009, when enrollment stood at 6,461.

Enrollment numbers reported January 25 show that 5,999 students are enrolled at Midland College this semester, surpassing the former record set in spring of 2008, when 5,972 students were enrolled.

“I am very pleased to see that all of our efforts in recruiting, advising, and admitting students are paying off with another record enrollment for the spring 2010 semester,” MC President, Steve Thomas said. “This simply means that more and more students are taking advantage of the affordable and high quality education provided by Midland College.”
