This past year has been filled with remarkable milestones, underscoring our dedication to attracting, enrolling, and supporting a talented and diverse undergraduate class.Key Highlights:%u2022 Strong Enrollment: We welcomed an undergraduate community of 32,632 students to campus this fall, including 7,180 new first-year students and 1,843 new transfer students. Nearly 70% of our undergraduates are residents of Minnesota.%u2022 Academic Excellence: Our incoming students have made impressive academic achievements. Among those whose schools reported class rank, over two-thirds ranked in the top 25% of their class and more than one-third were in the top 10%. About one in ten students graduated as their class valedictorian. For those submitting standardized test scores, the middle 50% range was 1310-1460 on the SAT and 26-32 on the ACT.%u2022 Commitment to Inclusivity: Building a broadly diverse student body remains central to our mission. This year, 25% of first-year students will be the first in their family to graduate from college and 27% qualified for Pell Grants.%u2022 Geographic Reach: Our undergraduates come from 115 countries around the globe, all 50 U.S. states, the District of Columbia, and 86 of Minnesota%u2019s 87 counties.%u2022 Student Success: Our first-year retention rate remained strong at 91.5%, reflecting our ongoing commitment to student achievement and support. The four-year graduation rate remains robust at 70.8%, well above the national average.These achievements demonstrate our continued strength in undergraduate enrollment and our unwavering commitment to creating a rigorous, inclusive, and supportive learning environment that prepares students to meet the workforce needs of Minnesota and the world.
