Fall 2009 Enrollment at the University of Kansas

Enrollment exceeded 30,000 students for the second year in a row. ACT scores for the incoming freshman class averaged 24.7, the second highest score for an incoming class at KU. The highest average composite score was 24.8 in 2008. Notably, five new KU students – four from Kansas and one from Missouri – earned perfect scores on the ACT or SAT. Additionally, this is the most diverse student body in KU history, with 14.3 percent of incoming freshmen and 12.8 percent overall identifying as American Indian/Alaskan Native, Asian, African-American or Latino. International enrollment increased 11.6 percent.

Enrollment by out-of-state students was stable at 30.8 percent compared to 30.2 percent in fall 2008. Graduate enrollment increased by 1.9 percent, and enrollment at the medical center campus in Kansas City, Kansas, was up 2.4 percent. Undergraduate enrollment held reasonably steady with a 1.2 percent decline.
