We now have a hockey team!

It's no longer a club sport.

Wow, Dr. Hilarius, I had no idea that the Huskies were that big.  Damn.  I would have figured for sure that Michigan, Illinois and especially Penn State would have been bigger.  Good stuff, thanks.

I wouldn't use Wiki for those type of statistics.  Then you have undergrad, grad and online numbers.  Find a real clear cut number isn't as easy as it should be.  Washington is still big, but isn't number 2.

Interesting to run into this morsel of info, as just the other day I did a (short) internet dive into this topic when I saw somewhere UCF was reported to have 70,000 on campus in-person students.

 

Holy cow, 70,000 students attending on campus and in-person?

 

I didn't see any 2024 numbers (but the list I saw was 2023 US Department of Education 21-day enrollment figures based on the "Common Data Set Program"):

 

1. Texas A&M  74.8

2. UCF  68.4

3. Rutgers 67.6

4. Florida 61.1

5. tOSU 60.5

6. ASU 57.6

7. Illinois 56.6

8. Florida Int. 55.7

9. Minnesota 55.0

10. Texas 52.4

 

UW was just behind at 52.3. I didn't realize it was so big either, nearly top ten. The UO? 23.2.

 

UCF seemed crazy big then I saw Indira Gandhi National University (New Delhi) reporting an enrollment of 7,140,000 (and it was time to step away from digging).
