Reflecting recent increases during other semesters, Trine University has set a record for summer enrollment, gaining more than 1,600 students from the same period a year ago.
Trine had 6,751 students enrolled in all programs for the summer 2024 terms in its official headcount, compared to 5,101 a year ago.
The figure reflects increased numbers in programs on its Angola campus, dual enrollment programs, programs at the Brooks College of Health Professions in Fort Wayne, TrineOnline and hybrid programs.
Students continue to be attracted to Trine by its low student-to-faculty ratios, generous financial aid and career outcomes for its graduates. Trine’s job placement average has been over 99% for more than a decade.
“Trine University continues to be a leader in providing an accessible, high-quality private education, and we’re pleased that growing numbers of students and families recognize the value we offer,” said Earl D. Brooks II, Ph.D., Trine University president. “As we launch new programs and open new facilities, we look forward to helping even more students complete their degree and prepare to lead, succeed and serve.”
Mitch Daniels, former governor of the state of Indiana and former president of Purdue University, shared advice with graduates he said were entering a world he described as “the most promising and most uncertain and treacherous” as Trine University held Commencement ceremonies on May 2.
Trine University’s annual Trine Day, a celebration of the university as well as an opportunity to support its mission, set records for number of donors and funds raised, bringing in more than $160,000 for scholarships, academic and athletic needs, and student organizations.
Trine University students learned about opportunities available with the Purdue Data Mine during a special presentation on April 10 in the Mark and Sarah Music/Ruoff Mortgage Esports Arena.
