Auburn University has reached its highest enrollment and its largest freshman class ever this fall, based on numbers reported this week by the Office of Institutional Research and Assessment.

An enrollment of 25,912 is 1,048 more students than in fall 2013. The new freshman class accounts for 4,592 students, 866 more than last fall.

Wayne Alderman, dean of Enrollment Services, attributed the size of the freshman class to a record number of freshman applications and an increase in the share of admitted students who decided to enroll at Auburn.

With the large freshman class and a simultaneous increase in graduate enrollment, Auburn’s total enrollment reached an all-time high.

“Auburn continues to be fortunate in attracting capable students from Alabama, from across the country, and from around the world,” said Drew Clark, director of the Office of Institutional Research and Assessment.

The new freshman class boasts an average ACT score of 27.0 and an average high school GPA of 3.77. Sixty-two percent of the new class are from Alabama, while 38 percent are from out-of-state.
