"The class is about the same size as last year's freshman class-approximately 3,000 students. Of these students, about 97 per cent live in Michigan." "Each year since 1957, approximately 90 per cent of the members of freshman classes have ranked in the top one-half of their high school classes, and 75 per cent were in the top quarter of their classes," Dean Gilden added. Almost 15,000 students are enrolled at the University this fall. Of this number, 11,700 are undergraduates and 3,300 are graduate students. The Office of Admissions received 7,208 new applications for admission for the fall semester.

Our programs range from the professional and practical to the purely academic. With such a diverse range of programs, we are confident you can find your fit. Recognized as a Doctoral University with High Research Activity (R2), Eastern prides itself on being a large campus with a small campus feel. Our course offerings are extensive and varied, yet our programs offer you a sense of community and connection. Our diverse student body promises a welcoming experience for everyone and encourages learning from students and faculty alike. The graduate programs at Eastern have accomplished, nationally recognized faculty who will mentor you and guide you through your personal program of study and will help you develop, design, and implement your capstone, thesis, or dissertation project.
