BYU-Idaho enrollment slows after mission age change
BYU-Idaho in Rexburg says enrollment slowed after The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints lowered missionary ages. About 700 fewer students enrolled this semester than expected, largely due to moving eligibility ages from 19 to 18 for men and 21 to 19 for women. The university notes a 12 percent rise from 2011 to 2012, with a 4 percent uptick this term, and warns growth slowdown will delay campus projects and hiring.
