Columbia University Enrollment

COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY now leads the colleges of the world in the number of students enrolled. The entering class this year numbered 1,059, passing the thousand mark for the first time. The total enrollment on October 5 was 14,573 students, against 12,745 enrolled at the same date last year. Counting the night school enrollment, and the enrollment in the extension teaching department, the total will probably reach another five thousand. The total income of the university for the year just past was $2,920,031. The expenditures exceeded the income by $13,592.55. The approximate cost per student therefore was $255.
