As the first week of classes begins, Arizona State University is projecting more than 144,800 undergraduate and graduate students will be enrolled for the fall 2023 semester, with nearly 80,000 joining on one of ASU’s campuses and locations, and more than 65,400 enrolled online — the largest ASU Online enrollment in university history. More than 16,600 of those students are first-year students projected to enroll on ASU’s campuses, locations and online.

Out of a total of more than 59,000 Arizonans enrolled, ASU will welcome nearly 16,500 first-year, transfer and graduate students from Arizona who are beginning their first ASU semester this week.

It is estimated that one in three on-campus undergraduates are the first in their families to attend a college or university. And, out of all ASU’s undergraduates, one in four identifies as Hispanic/Latino, totaling more than 27,000 students.

Beyond our home state, ASU continues to draw students from all U.S. states and 157 countries. In total, more than 15,100 international students will pursue their degree at ASU this fall semester.

In total, ASU will enroll over 13,700 military-connected students, a university record, of which nearly 70% are online students. And the university continues to encourage spouses of military veterans to enroll in an on-campus or online degree tuition-free thanks to the Spouses of Military Veterans Scholarship, which is available to qualified Arizona residents.

“It is exciting to see a record number of new students of different ages and experiences choosing Arizona State University as the best place to advance their learning journeys and their lives,” ASU President Michael M. Crow said. “ASU is designed to offer learning and living environments that empower students to thrive, and welcoming so many learners with diverse interests and backgrounds tells us that we are making meaningful progress in providing world-class education at scale.”
