UC enrollment continues to grow
January 6, 2025 •
Building on this past year’s enrollment gains, the University of California again announces high-water mark numbers with notable increases across its campuses for fall 2024. According to data released today, Jan. 7, total California resident undergraduate enrollment grew by 3,910 students — a 2 percent rise over the previous year. Incoming California undergraduates, first-years and transfers, now stand at 60,644 students.
This growth reinforces UC’s dedication to expanding access to the state’s students and fulfilling the University’s compact with Gov. Newsom, and with the Legislature’s support, to grow in-state enrollment.
“The University of California is committed to expanding access and opportunity, helping our state’s brightest students from all backgrounds realize the value and promise of a UC degree,” said President Michael V. Drake, M.D. “These enrollment figures reflect the State’s investment in California students and the dedication of our staff, faculty and campus leaders to providing a world-class education.”
