Fall 2010 Syracuse University reports a 9 percent overall increase in undergraduate applications. This has set a record of 22,661 applications.
Donald Saleh, SU vice president for enrollment management said, "this year we experienced quite a substantial increase." Saleh added, this increase can be attributed to a marketing and outreach admissions campaign as well as having well know alumni.
The economy may not seem to be a factor yet with the high number of students applying but SU has seen more student applying for tuition assistance.
Don't be discouraged by the high number of applications, Saleh says, "SU plans to accept enough students to meet its target of 3,300 freshmen, about 50 more than last year's class.
