Pima Community College Enrollment Increases for Seventh Consecutive Semester
TUCSON, AZ – Pima Community College’s fall first-day enrollment was up 4% compared to the first day of fall classes last year, continuing an upward enrollment trend at PCC over the past two years. Fall classes started on Monday, August 26, 2024.
First-day fall credit enrollment, which measures the number of courses students take, was 53,896, up 4.08% from last fall. Fall headcount, the number of students taking classes, was 17,918, up 1% from last fall.
“We are pleased that learners are continuing to come to Pima in increasing numbers,” said Phil Burdick, Pima Community College Vice Chancellor for External Relations. “Students are looking for affordable, quality higher education, which PCC is known for, and flexible learning options, which is why we are offering more classes online and in hybrid formats as well as in-person options. “
First-day enrollment numbers don’t reflect what’s expected to be another sharp increase in dual enrollment students, where students take classes in their high schools for PCC credit. Last year, 6,027 high school students enrolled in PCC’s dual enrollment classes.
While the traditional 16-week fall semester is now underway, students can still register for 14-week classes until September 9, 2024. Registration for 8-week classes is open until October 21, 2024. For more information, visit www.pima.edu.
