Another Louisiana school is reporting surging enrollment. LSU Alexandria has announced that its enrollment has grown to just under 7,700 students. Abbey Bain, the vice chancellor for enrollment and student engagement, says it’s a continuation of a long winning streak for the school.
“This is our 11th semester in a row of having record-breaking enrollment,” Bain said.
In 2019, enrollment at LSUA was just under 3,300. Bain says even though enrollment has more than doubled since then, it hasn’t lost sight of its core mission as a small undergraduate school.
“LSUA really prides itself on that family environment, creating that one-on-one attention that really sets us apart. Our students are the focus of our teachers and our faculty,” Bain noted.
Bain says in addition, LSUA has more than 4,500 students who take their classes entirely online.
“Close to 70% of those online students are still Louisiana residents, are more non-traditional students who are working, and that’s their way that they’re able to finish their education and further their career,” Bain said.
