Stark Campus - Spring 2015
Kent State Grows Freshman Persistence and Enrollment at Its Kent Campus for Spring 2015
Kent State University’s Kent Campus maintained a strong freshman persistence rate of 94.3 percent, up 0.6 percent from 93.7
percent last year as the university released its official 15th day census data for spring 2015 recorded enrollment. Freshman
persistence measures the percentage of first-time, full-time freshmen who persist or continue their studies from fall to
spring at an institution. Freshman persistence at Kent State’s Regional Campuses also is increased to 80.3 percent, up 0.7
percent compared to 79.6 percent last year.
The Kent Campus also continues to grow enrollment. Unduplicated (or preponderant) headcount at the Kent Campus is up
502 students, or 1.9 percent. Students are counted only once at the campus at which they hold the majority of their course
load.
“The enrollment strategy to build on quality is continuing to bode well for Kent State as the spring enrollment figures for the
Kent Campus are up for 2015,” said T. David Garcia, Kent State’s associate vice president for enrollment management. “The
efforts of faculty, staff and the administration are key to the success of enrollment growth.”
The university reports 39,076 students for the whole eight-campus system for the 2015 Spring Semester, compared to 39,591
for 2014 Spring Semester. While enrollment at the Kent Campus is up with 27,398 students, unduplicated headcount at the
Regional Campuses decreased by 1,017 students, or 8.0 percent, to 11,678 students.
Highlights from the spring 2015 enrollment numbers also include:
•Online enrollment is up with 17,762 students signed up for distance learning classes, a 4.37 percent
increase compared with 17,017 students taking one or more online courses last year. Overall, more
than 45 percent of Kent State students are taking one or more online courses.
•Enrollment of international students is up 11.1 percent with 2,772 total international students.
•Of the Regional Campuses, the Columbiana County campuses (Kent State University at East
Liverpool and Kent State University at Salem) improved freshman persistence. Kent State East
Liverpool is up 5.0 percent, and Kent State Salem is up 7.8 percent, making the combined change an
increase of 6.7 percent to 82.8 percent.
•Kent State’s School of Digital Sciences also continues to show impressive growth. Enrollment in the
School of Digital Science at the Kent Campus is up 115.6 percent to 483 students (preponderant).
Kent State’s eight campuses are located in Ashtabula, East Liverpool, Geauga, Kent, Salem, Stark, Trumbull and Tuscarawas.
