The University of Arkansas at Little Rock is reporting a significant enrollment milestone. The Fall 2024 census reveals the university’s largest enrollment growth in 15 years. This marks the most substantial increase since Fall 2009, reflecting the university’s continued efforts to enhance access and increase affordability.
UA Little Rock’s undergraduate enrollment increased by 3.7%, with 5,434 students enrolled this fall compared to 5,242 in Fall 2023. The university also saw a rise in undergraduate applications (16.7%) and admissions (19.4%).
Although graduate enrollment declined slightly, dropping from 1,535 to 1,479, this was primarily due to a decrease in international student numbers.
“This enrollment growth is a direct result of the hard work and creative thinking of our faculty, staff, and leadership teams,” said UA Little Rock Chancellor Christina Drale. “Everyone at UA Little Rock has a role in creating an environment that welcomes students and supports their success. These enrollment figures reflect that collective effort.”
The combined undergraduate and graduate enrollment increased by 2% compared to Fall 2023, with student semester credit hours rising by 4%.
These figures do not include concurrent high school students or those enrolled at the William H. Bowen School of Law, which are reported separately.
