INCREASED ENROLLMENTS REPORTED AT IOWA LAKES

Another increase in enrollment has been experienced at Iowa Lakes Community College.  This becomes the ninth consecutive fall term for an enrollment record.

College officials report overall enrollment is at 3,753 students – up 3.6 percent from last fall. 

Most of the growth this year was reported in eCollege, which is ‘online’ coursework.  The eCollege courses saw the greatest increase – up nearly 170 percent. 

Julie Carlson, Dean of Enrollment Management, attributes the increase to a combined effort of every college employee.

“The increase in student enrollment is a result of the hard work and dedication of faculty and staff at Iowa Lakes who are committed to providing the highest quality programs and services to students,” Carlson said.

Iowa Lakes offers more than 100 areas of study at its five locations.  In addition, the college provides training and retraining to employees of area business and industry as well as continuing education courses.
