Total enrollment rankings are a simple look at which institutions have the largest student body. This gives students and families an idea of which campuses are the largest and smallest.
Each of these rankings is based on an analysis of data about the school’s selectivity, financial health, graduation rates, student success, and more. We’ve outlined our full methodology here.
