\ Style/21 BreezeJAMES MADISON UNIVERS'lTY Sports/25 4L MONDAY MARCH 18. 1996 VOL. 73. NO. 40 Admissions office reports increased interest in JMU by Sally Clarke staff writer This article is the first in a two-part series investigating admissions procedures at JMU. Admissions statistics suggest prospective students for the class of 2000 are showing more interest in JMU than applicants of previous years. "The word is out that JMU is an outstanding school." according to Fred Hilton, director of media relations. Increased interest across the country in JMU is evident in the 13.612 applications students submitted for a spot in the class of 2000. The previous all-time high for JMU came in 1988, when 13,550 students applied for freshman admission. Alan Cerveny, associate vice president for admissions and enrollment services, said breaking the '88 record is especially significant because there were almost 10 percent more high school graduates in Virginia in 1988 than this year. Virginia high schools graduated 66.731 students in 1988, but only about 60,000 will graduate this year. More than 12 percent of these graduating seniors applied for admission to JMU. Even more impressive, Cerveny said, is the rapid rise in out-of-state applications, which he attributes to the growing national reputation of the university. "JMU continues to receive considerable . . . attention in a variety of respected publications and studies on quality of colleges and universities," Cerveny said. Of the 13,612 students applying for freshman admission, JMU can only PETER HAUf;ARTY/seniorphotographer enroll about 2,850, or one in five applicants. The entering class will be the largest in JMU history, surpassing the Early exit enrollment for fall '95 by more than 300 students, according to Roxie Shabazz, JMU junior guard Holly Rilinger went up against Duke University's Kira Orr Saturday in the first director of undergraduate admissions. This year's application total is up 8.3 percent from last year's application round of the NCAA tournament. JMU led early on, but eventually fell 85-53 to the Blue Devils in pool of 12,573, the previous second-highest number in the school's history, Durham, N.C. It was the Dukes' first NCAA appearance since 1991. See story, page 23. according to the press release. JMU's goal is to raise its student population to 15,000 within the next 10 years, according to Hilton. There are a variety of reasons for the increase, such as the increasing number of Virginia high school students planning to attend state colleges. Florida proposes simplified voter Jane Vandall, a college and career information specialist at Wakefield High School in Arlington, said the number of applicants to JMU from her area are up simply because it is a highly populated region. registration process for students according to Robert Roberts, JMU by Mamie Welter presented by Virginia Gov.
