The class of 2027 represents 18 states and six countries and includes 35 percent of students who identify as first-generation (an increase from last year) and 44 percent who identify as BIPOC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Top majors include nursing and psychology followed by business administration and a cluster of STEM-related fields: biology, computer science, pre-professional health and engineering. IEP realized a nine-percent enrollment increase from 77 to 84 students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c黑料正能量 continues to invest in strategic ways to help all of our students succeed and ultimately graduate. While there is no one-size-fits-all strategy to student success, many departments across campus work closely with one another to help our students \u2018find their ROAR\u2019 at 黑料正能量,\u201d said Zach Yoder, assistant provost for student success. \u201cIn addition, this year marks the fifth consecutive year that we have had a 75 percent or higher first-year student retention rate.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Full-time graduate students rose from 218 to 221 with increases in the biomedicine, counseling and nursing programs.
