The University of Northern Iowa was one of only seven colleges in the country this year to receive the Excellence in Assessment designation in recognition of its continual efforts to ensure the education it provides sets students up for success.
In its official census day headcount, the University of Northern Iowa reported a total student population of 10,497, as well as a marked increase in a number of important areas including a record high four-year graduation rate.
While total enrollment is down from one year ago, the university began planning for the decrease in the early spring, making budget adjustments and working with the Board of Regents on a funding model to keep tuition rates steady.
UNI President Mark A. Nook’s address before faculty and staff outlined key strategic initiatives and investments the campus will be implementing over the next fiscal year to help attract more students while equipping those students for success beyond UNI.
