IU Bloomington breaks record with enrollment of 48,626

The closure is part of an agreement through Indiana University and the chapter to remedy any fines or legal action by the health department.

IU Bloomington announced record enrollment of 48,626 students as of Sept. 1.

That includes 10,127 "beginner" students and 555 transfer students.

In the past decade, the beginner class has grown more than 24 percent, the university said in a statement announcing the statistics.

"We are honored by the record-breaking enrollments across our campuses, as it affirms that the word is out: IU is an exceptional university," IU president Pamela Whitten said in the statement.

The total number of students enrolled across all campuses is 89,247.

IU Bloomington has 5,059 undergraduate beginner students from Indiana.

The beginner class comes from all 92 Indiana counties and 49 states plus Washington, D.C.

WFIU/WTIU News is an independent newsroom rooted in public service.

“Act Independently” is one of the basic creeds of journalism ethics, and we claim it proudly. The WFIU/WTIU News facilities are located on the campus of Indiana University, which does hold our broadcast license and contribute funding to our organization. However, our journalists and senior news leaders have full authority over journalistic decisions — what we decide to cover and how we tell our stories. We observe a clear boundary: Indiana University and RTVS administrators focus on running a strong and secure organization; WFIU/WTIU journalists focus on bringing you independent news you can trust.
