Delta College enrollment continues to soar

Delta College has experienced an incredible increase in dual enrollment of 21% and an overall enrollment increase of 23%! The fall 2025 semester began Saturday, August 23 with 8,581 students, up from 6,954 in Fall 2020.

 

“It’s incredibly rewarding to see more students choosing Delta College year after year,” says Shelly Raube, vice president of Student Empowerment and Success. “This growth reflects the commitment we’ve made to our students to meet them where they are and empower them every step of the way to graduation.”

Many strategic initiatives have contributed to Delta College’s enrollment growth. Michigan’s Sixty by 30 campaign provides generous financial aid through programs like Michigan Reconnect and the Michigan Achievement Scholarship. In addition, Delta continues to nurture community partnerships and invest in accessibility from its three downtown centers in Bay, Midland, and Saginaw counties to the expansion of online and accelerated course offerings to better serve working adults and distance learners.

“We’re here to make education affordable, accessible and flexible, while building a community where every student feels supported and valued,” says Raube. “That sense of belonging is what sets Delta apart. That is the Delta way.”
