Students first: The story behind Creighton’s record enrollment

More students than ever are choosing Creighton. Why? Mary Chase, EdD’14, gets this question a lot. She’s the Vice Provost for Enrollment Management who’s contributed to Creighton’s admissions strategy for more than 20 years. There are many dedicated people (Chase included) whose vision and leadership have helped Creighton set a school record with an overall enrollment of 8,948 students in 2026. But perhaps what matters more than anything is that prospective students are recognizing Creighton’s authenticity in its mission. Said Chase: “It's really not about enrollment. It's about the students and it's about our community, creating a campus culture that truly loves what we do and loves the students that are here.” Learn more about Creighton's enrollment record: https://www.creighton.edu/news/creigh...
