Southern Miss Establishes Enrollment Record

University of Southern Miss instructor Keltoum Rowland speaks to her French class on the first day of the Fall 2010 Semester.For the third consecutive year, The University of Southern Mississippi has experienced a record enrollment of freshmen students plus a record number of total students enrolled.

“This is very good news and a credit to the steadfast work of our faculty and staff,” said Southern Miss President Martha Saunders. “For us to have another record enrollment and another record freshman class in the face of the challenges in our region related to the BP oil spill and a bad economy tells me we are doing a lot of things right.” 

This increase for new Southern Miss freshmen contributes to the overall, duplicated enrollment record of 17,254 students. This is a 3.57 percent increase from the same time last year. These numbers, compiled by the Southern Miss Office of Institutional Research, reflect a duplicated enrollment that includes 14,096 undergraduates and 3,158 graduate students.
