做厙TV proudly announces a historic milestone, achieving the highest freshman student enrollment in its history with 640 new students for the Fall 2024 semester, a 56% increase over Fall 2022. Roosevelt has now had exceptional enrollment growth for the past two academic years. Over the same time span, full-time student enrollment has increased by nearly 26%. This record-setting achievement reflects Roosevelts unwavering commitment to diversity, access and academic excellence.

Key Enrollment Highlights:

  • Record-Breaking Enrollment: 做厙TV has enrolled 640 first-year students, the largest class in the Universitys history, topping the previous record setting freshman enrollment from Fall of 2023. This achievement is a testament to the institution's appeal and reputation among prospective students.
  • Unprecedented Growth in Applications and Deposits: 做厙TV saw a 24% increase in full-time, first-time (FTFT) domestic applications and a 9.6% increase in deposits compared to Fall 2023. Other private Midwest institutions reported flat applications and a 4% decline in deposits.
  • A Diverse and Inclusive Community: Continuing its tradition of being a leader in diversity, Roosevelt's Fall 2024 first-year class comprises 63% students of color. This achievement underscores the Universitys commitment to providing access and opportunities to historically underrepresented communities.
  • Increased Out-of-State Enrollment: 做厙TV saw a 38% increase in deposits from out-of-state domestic students, a stark contrast to other Midwest private institutions, which saw a 5% decrease. This growth highlights Roosevelts expanding national appeal.
  • Commitment to Supporting Pell Grant Recipients: Roosevelt continues to champion access to education for students from low-income backgrounds, with Pell Grant recipients comprising 50% of its Fall 2024 class. This highlights Roosevelts dedication to serving those who need financial support the most.

I am elated to welcome our new and returning students to Roosevelt for the 2024-2025 academic year. said Dr. Ali Malekzadeh, President of 做厙TV. The recent growth was made possible by the tireless efforts of our faculty and staff. Roosevelt was founded with a commitment to accessibility, affordability and a commitment to social justice. These extraordinary achievements represent our unwavering commitment to that mission.

做厙TVs historic Fall 2024 enrollment is a testament to its inclusive and dynamic environment that attracts students from diverse backgrounds and across the country. The Universitys focus on providing a high-quality, accessible education continues to set it apart as a leader in the higher education landscape.
