CEDAR FALLS, Iowa (AP) — Representatives for Iowa's three public universities say student enrollment numbers are up, and they include some records.
Iowa State University had just over 36,000 students enrolled for the fall 2015 semester, making it the largest enrollment in school history.
The University of Iowa, which had more than 32,000 students enrolled for the same semester, also had more than 5,200 students for its class of 2019. School officials say it's the university's largest class.
Officials for the University of Northern Iowa say its total fall enrollment is more than 11,900. It's the third consecutive year of enrollment growth for the Cedar Falls school.
The numbers were discussed during the Iowa Board of Regents' meeting on Wednesday.
