Reflecting recent increases during other semesters, Trine University has set a record for summer enrollment, gaining more than 1,600 students from the same period a year ago.
Trine had 6,751 students enrolled in all programs for the summer 2024 terms in its official headcount, compared to 5,101 a year ago.
The figure reflects increased numbers in programs on its Angola campus, dual enrollment programs, programs at the Brooks College of Health Professions in Fort Wayne, TrineOnline and hybrid programs.
Students continue to be attracted to Trine by its low student-to-faculty ratios, generous financial aid and career outcomes for its graduates. Trine’s job placement average has been over 99% for more than a decade.
“Trine University continues to be a leader in providing an accessible, high-quality private education, and we’re pleased that growing numbers of students and families recognize the value we offer,” said Earl D. Brooks II, Ph.D., Trine University president. “As we launch new programs and open new facilities, we look forward to helping even more students complete their degree and prepare to lead, succeed and serve.”

Trine University has launched Dual Advantage, a new program that gives undergraduate students multiple pathways to earn both a bachelor’s degree and an advanced degree in less time than completing both degrees separately.
