MTSU administrators, faculty and staff are ready to launch the spring 2012 semester for the projected 23,700 students expected to attend. Classes will begin Thursday, Jan. 12.
The University already is a healthier campus; on Jan. 1, it went tobacco-free.
Officials said spring 2012 enrollment should be slightly below that of spring 2011, when 24,660 students were registered for classes. As of Jan. 5, MTSU’s spring enrollment stood at 22,659. The numbers will change daily as students register even after classes start.
Enrollment-management officials will submit student census totals to the Tennessee Board of Regents sometime after Jan. 26.
MTSU’s fall 2011 enrollment was an all-time record 26,442 students.
