Arizona State University is bigger, more diverse, and is proof that academic excellence and broad access can exist simultaneously.

ASU enrollment in the 21st Century

Over the last 20 years, from fall 2001 to fall 2021, the quantitative and qualitative growth of ASU’s total student enrollment tells an impressive and important story – one that demonstrates our commitment to our University Charter.

ASU’s enrollment size has grown exponentially since 2001 – 144%. And, even more notable than our rising enrollment numbers, is the growth in the diversity of our students, the increase in our first generation college students, and the excellence found within our academic community.
