\"Screen<\/a>More than 11,100 students enrolled at UCCS for the fall 2014 semester, a new record, and more than 5 percent larger than last year\u2019s record student enrollment.<\/p>\n

Classes officially began Aug. 25 and official, detailed enrollment reports are expected in mid-September.<\/p>\n

Preliminary reports prepared by the Office of Institutional Research show 11,199 students enrolled for the fall 2014 semester, a 601 student or 5.7 percent increase from the 10,598 students who enrolled for the fall 2013 semester. Since 2005, UCCS has grown by more than 3,500 students or 47 percent.<\/p>\n

UCCS officials cautioned that final enrollment figures will differ slightly from preliminary reports compiled after only a few days of classes.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are pleased that a record number of people selected UCCS as the place to continue their futures,\u201d Pam Shockley-Zalabak, chancellor, said. \u201cI appreciate the significant efforts of faculty and staff members who continue to provide personal support for students, explain that the university is an excellent value, and help students achieve their dream of a college education.\u201d<\/p>\n
