Student Interviewed for MPBN Enrollment, Trustees Report

In a report about improving enrollment at the University of Maine, which is on the agenda for next week’s University of Maine System Board of Trustees meeting, Maine Public Broadcasting Network interviewed UMaine student David Holomakoff, a Connecticut resident who applied to UMaine to pursue a degree in biological engineering, which he could not find in his home state. He said he fell in love with UMaine as soon as he stepped onto the campus and was further pleased to discover he was eligible for an in-state tuition rate. The report also said community college transfers have boosted tuition at many University of Maine System campuses.
