CBC Increases Freshman Enrollment for Fall 2024

      Central Baptist College’s fall 2024 enrollment data, announced this week, showed a significant increase in first-time freshmen and a record number of international students. The numbers also show the College’s first fall-to-fall increase in traditional enrollment since 2016.

      CBC’s fall enrollment is highlighted by the traditional first-time freshman class that has increased by 7% from the 2023 class.

      “The Admissions and Registration teams did an outstanding job bringing in the 2024 class. This increase in the number of freshmen entering is the highest since 2016,” said Steve Elder, interim vice president for enrollment management.

      In addition to the increase in freshmen, CBC saw an increase in international students and students from outside the contiguous United States (OCONUS). The college currently has 51 international and OCONUS students representing 20 countries and territories, making this the highest number of enrolled international students in CBC’s history.

      CBC Executive Vice President Dr. Jeremy Langley added, “This is an exciting time to be a Mustang! We are very thankful for our students and look forward to seeing what God does with this incoming class. The future looks very bright.”

      Central Baptist College reports that the total fall census date enrollment is 547 students. Of these students, the PACE (Professional Adult College Education) program contributed with a 10% increase, the largest increase since 2013.
