Middle Georgia State University hit a record-high enrollment this fall.
The number of students now enrolled is 8,409, a 4.6 percent increase over the same time last year. Dr. Stephen Schultheis, Middle Georgia State’s (MGA’s) vice president for Enrollment Management, cited major increases in the number of dual-enrollment and graduate-degree students, as well as higher retention rates, as among the factors leading to the record enrollment.
“It takes a team effort to reach our highest enrollment ever,” Schultheis said. “The faculty and staff are committed to focusing on student access and success and the results of our fall enrollment demonstrate that. MGA is at a really exciting time as we have strong academic programs that are in high demand across the state.”
