That might include their online students, which I believe is a huge program.

No, Stanford is. Clemson is the Nahum of college football. You know he's in the Bible somewhere but you're not entirely clear what the point of having him is.

In any event, scholarship numbers limit the team to 85. Nobody is impressed by a school with an enrollment of 250X that having a decent team.

No. And in the future Texas A&M will be much larger in enrollment than the stronghorns because we have room to expand.

Planning for 80,000 enrollment is in the works.

Didn't realize Clemson was that small.

I actually liked the 18,000 student range when I was in college. These numbers are getting insane though. Hope our schools can keep up without having to sacrifice the value of education.

Really hope they just don't put a price tag on these kid's heads instead of taking the time to actually educate them in a fair manner.

Should do a ranking by per capita population of the state too.

Don't have enough time right now, but that is a great idea if someone on the Rant can do so. I would love to see the statistics.

That Arizona number has to be inflated. UCF is known to have the largest enrollment in the country and in 2014 only claimed 60,797 according to Google.

U. of Alabama is fastest-growing flagship; others are standing still

Top 4 flagship schools are from the SEC (Seems LSU is the only SEC flagship to lose enrollment)....

1. University of Alabama: 29,440 (92%)
2. University of Mississippi: 16,677 (74%)
3. University of Arkansas: 21,009 (68%)
4. University of South Carolina-Columbia: 24,180 (58%)
6. University of Missouri-Columbia: 26,928 (49%)
13. University of Kentucky: 21,441 (27%)
40. University of Georgia: 26,278 (9%)
44. University of Tennessee-Knoxville: 21,182 (6%)
48. University of Florida: 33,168 (1%)
50. Louisiana State University: 24,923 (-5%)

Other 4 SEC schools not listed, Auburn, Miss. St., Texas A&M, Vandy are not flagship, so don't count.

As far as Alabama, in 2003 (Whitt's 1st year) Alabama set a record for enrollment at a little over 20,000. Since then the enrollment has gone up each year. In the fall of 2015, Bama set a record of over 37,000.

You might be right, but their website claims 80,000 right now. See if you can find something different. I took their numbers at their word...not that that means anything.

Congratulations on the surge at the University of Alabama as well. The more students in higher education in this State the better...I don't care if they wear Crimson and White or Burnt Orange and Navy Blue. Great for our State!

Best of luck to your whole University. Our kids certainly deserve it.

I'm sure Mizzou's will drop in the fall. Weren't applications down 30+% and dorms are expected to be closed in the upcoming school year?

Well..that number doesn't include the Med school, which is filled with State grads

State grads love to pretend that the med center is filled with only state grads. Not sure what moral victory they're trying to achieve....they're still enrolled at the university of Mississippi.

No pretend though. The med school serves the entire state of MS.

It means that State focuses far more on science programs than Ole Miss does.

It also means congrats on politics dictating who runs the UMMC?

Texas A&M----61,642

Silly aggies. Still counting the Qatar (!) and Galveston campuses in your enrollment figures, eh?

Is that kind of like claiming the entire A&M System endowment as belonging solely to the College Station campus? (I've seen that happen many, many times. Hint: Their endowment isn't $10 billion.)

quote:

Spring 2016
Executive Summary

The Fall University total enrollment reached 60,826 students. College Station campus enrolled 55,092 students, 90.6% of the total.

Poor aggy. They have a 70 percent acceptance rate and are dropping like a rock in the rankings (because they don't have enough faculty which makes the student-teacher ratio way out of whack).

All of the aforementioned (bogus enrollment figures, bogus endowment claim, hell... bogus conference and national championships) is related to their massive inferiority complex with The University of Texas.
