Ohio University Enrollment Seen Near Three Thousand
Ohio University registrar Frank B. Dilley forecasts fall enrollment around 3,000, possibly matching last year’s second semester total of 3,288. Applications lag slightly but expected to rise in September, with science engineering and ROTC in higher demand and a non alarming potential drop from last year’s 3,501. Any draft-related incompletions will yield refunds, and housing pressures are not expected to be as severe.
