Concordia Nebraska celebrates fall 2024 undergraduate enrollment numbers
Seward, NE (09/17/2024) — Concordia University, Nebraska today announced that the university welcomed 404 new undergraduate students for the fall 2024 semester. Combined with the university's 818 returning undergraduate students, current undergraduate enrollment is 1,222, which is 99.3 percent of the enrollment goal the university set for this semester.
"When fall 2022 began, we had 1,124 undergraduate students on campus," said Concordia Nebraska Associate Vice President of Undergraduate Enrollment Aaron Roberts. "To be at 1,222 students for fall 2024 means we've grown by nearly 100 undergraduate students in the last two years. The faith so many families and students have put in our faculty and staff is a blessing beyond words."
The university also serves 448 full-time and part-time adult learners registered for classes as of Aug. 27, 2024.
"What a joy and honor it is to welcome, serve and equip men and women for lives of learning, service and leadership to Christ in the church and world," said university President Dr. Bernard Bull. "In a time when some colleges are struggling with declining enrollment, we continue to see strong, even growing, interest in Concordia by prospective students and their families. We are humbled and honored to strive to be a Christ-centered higher education alternative. We do not know how long this trend will persist but thank God for the opportunity to support students and families who hold Christian education and faith formation as a central priority when choosing a college."
