Media report on fall 2020 enrollment at UMaine
WABI (Channel 5) and the Bangor Daily News reported on student enrollment for the fall 2020 semester at the University of Maine. More than 2,200 students will attend UMaine in the fall, according to the reports. More than 1,100 out-of-state students enrolled, a 15% uptick from last year, according to WABI. “We are very pleased with the way the enrollment numbers look on the field right now, particularly with the increase in out of state students. We know this means our quality and our affordability message is out widely. And students are taking a good look at being here in Maine with us,” said UMaine President Joan Ferrini-Mundy. “We’re trying to make sure that they can anticipate what it will be like to become a Black Bear, and how we’ll help them do that.”
