JACKSONVILLE, Ala. – Jacksonville State University has broken its all-time enrollment record, for the fifth straight year.
The university said, for the first time ever, it has surpassed 10,000 students. This fall, JSU enrolled 10,339 students. This represents a 3.9 percent increase in students compared to last year’s record enrollment of 9,955 students.
“The growth we celebrate today is the result of a true team effort,” said President Dr. Don C. Killingsworth, Jr. “Our entire campus has been working collaboratively, which played a huge part in pushing us past this historic benchmark. This achievement reflects the collective strength of the entire Gamecock community.”
JSU’s enrollment has increased for five consecutive years. This year’s increase of 384 students is the largest in that span, topping last fall’s gain of 283 students.
