Fall 2023 registration remains ongoing at ACC, and the college is already reporting a significant increase in new student enrollments.
As of Tuesday, July 18, the unduplicated headcount of new students was up 35% from last year and 43% from two years ago. Overall, student enrollment is up 6.5% from last year and 5.5% from two years ago. So far, the unduplicated student enrollment is 24,693.
Data show new students also continue to look for flexible options such as online and 8-week classes.
