Northwestern Boasts Enrollment Increases for Fall 2024

Northwestern Oklahoma State University officials announce an increase in enrollment for the fall 2024 semester. Currently, there are 2,081 students enrolled as Rangers, which is nearly an 8 percent increase. Credit hours have increased more than 4 percent.

Almost every category of enrollment has seen an increase.

  • First-time freshman at Northwestern increased by over 2 percent.
  • The Northwestern-Enid campus increased enrollment by 7 percent.
  • The Northwestern-Woodward campus saw a 42 percent increase in first-time freshmen.
  • Total undergraduate enrollment increased by over 2 percent.
  • Graduate enrollment increased by nearly 48 percent.
  • Concurrent enrollment increased by 15 percent in head count and 22 percent in credit hours.


“The increased enrollment is always a positive sign for Northwestern,” Dr. Bo Hannaford, university president, said. “Having this increase shows a great dedication of not only our faculty and staff, but especially the recruitment team. We are proud of the efforts campus-wide and are happy to see these new Rangers on campus.”

Tuition did not increase for the fourth year in a row and about 50 percent of undergraduates are debt-free.
