“Given that we had a slight decrease in fall enrollment, and to now be experiencing a spring enrollment increase is a strong testimony highlighting the outstanding efforts of our faculty and staff in working with current and new students alike,” said Steven Shirley, president of Minot State University. “We implemented several new initiatives this fall, and it is exciting to see these initial results.  Minot State University is a wonderful environment for higher education, and we look forward to growing the campus as we continue attracting, retaining and educating the best and brightest students from throughout the region.”

Spring 2015 enrollment numbers show gains in a variety of student categories, with increases in new freshmen, new transfer students, new graduate students, and students enrolled at the Minot Air Force Base.
