RE: NIU sees 3 percent jump in new freshman enrollment
ISU's last "record" class was literally 6 more students than the year before, so their drop of 350 students this year is about 50 times that magnitude. But yeah they were doing well until this year. I chalked it (and SIU's big drop) up to the budget crisis but NIU's jump is perplexing to say the least. In terms of absolute freshman numbers NIU is always more grad and professional program heavy than ISU which pretty much just has MBA and an audiology degrees. Still got a ways to go but at least it's going in the right direction in a terrible climate.
