    USU sets enrollment record as concurrent enrollment grows

    LOGAN — Utah State University has set a new record for fall 2026 enrollment, with 32,286 students enrolled this semester. That's an 8% increase over fall 2025, with growth attributed in part to concurrent enrollment and the university's statewide and online options, according to a recently released report.

    Katie Jo North, the associate vice president of strategic enrollment management at USU, said the university faced several challenges, including changes in missionary age and a declining number of high school graduates in general.

    "But overall, we were able to see increases in enrollment through our statewide and online options and through concurrent enrollment. Those were two big opportunities that increased our enrollment this year," North said.
