CAMPBELLSVILLE, Ky. - Campbellsville University's summer 2019 enrollment set a new record with 5,415 total students, per Campbellsville University's Office of Institutional Research.
This new record is due to an increase in early and later terms, which saw a 106% and 88% increase, respectively.
Graduate enrollment increased in the following programs: Master of Science in Information Technology Management (MSITM), Professional Master in Business Administration (PMBA) and the Master in Social Work (MSW).
Undergraduate enrollment also increased with a higher number of students enrolled in eight-week courses.
“We are thrilled with the record enrollment for summer 2019,” Dr. Shane Garrison, vice president for enrollment services and associate professor of educational ministries, said.
“More and more students are seeking opportunities to complete their degrees quicker so they can move into their careers or move up through promotion. Taking classes in the summer is a perfect way to do both,” he said.
“Through in-seat, online, evening and weekend summer course offerings, Campbellsville University is doing everything we can to accommodate the needs of today's career-minded students who are trying to balance their academics along with other life demands.”
