A Diversified Student Body

About two-thirds of the college`s 1,700 students are young adults between the ages of 24 and 34. However, a significant number are both younger and older than this age group.

Approximately 50 percent of the students are members of minority groups; about half are women. Most are candidates for the baccalaureate degree, but some are college graduates who are pursuing a second bachelor`s degree or who plan to go on to graduate school in a different area of study. Others enroll in selected courses in areas of professional or personal interest without establishing degree candidacy.
