密歇根15所公立大学在校生减少5223人:仅3校逆势增长

密歇根州15所公立大学今秋在校生总数为254,107人,比去年同期的259,330人减少5,223人,降幅约2%,下滑幅度大于高等教育界的预期。《底特律自由新闻报》10月31日援引密歇根州立大学协会的2026年秋季初步报告报道了这批数据。
15所公立大学中有12所招生下滑。苏必利尔湖州立大学降幅最大,达14.4%,减少208人至1,232人;东密歇根大学减少708人,降幅5.8%;北密歇根大学同样下降5.8%,减少425人。逆势增长的只有3所:密歇根大学安娜堡分校增长1.3%至54,181人,弗林特分校增长近2%至7,258人,韦恩州立大学基本持平,增加14人至24,182人。
研究生招生减少4.9%、即2,918人,占全州总降幅一半以上,协会将其归因于联邦政策放缓了国际学生处理进度。新生转学入学人数增长0.9%至12,993人,首次入学新生下降1.2%至40,228人。密歇根成就奖学金已进入第四年,符合条件的学生每年最高可获5,500美元。
Michigan's 15 Public Universities Lose 5,223 Students This Fall
Michigan's 15 public universities enrolled 254,107 students this fall, down 5,223 — about 2 percent — from 259,330 a year earlier, a sharper decline than higher education leaders expected. The Detroit Free Press reported the figures October 31 from the Michigan Association of State Universities' preliminary fall 2026 report.
Twelve of the 15 universities lost students. Lake Superior State University fell the most in percentage terms, down 14.4 percent, or 208 students, to 1,232. Eastern Michigan University lost 708 students (5.8 percent) and Northern Michigan University 425 (also 5.8 percent). Only three institutions grew: the University of Michigan's Ann Arbor campus rose 1.3 percent to 54,181, the Flint campus rose nearly 2 percent to 7,258, and Wayne State University was essentially flat, up 14 students to 24,182.
Graduate enrollment fell 4.9 percent, or 2,918 students — more than half the statewide loss — which the association attributed to federal policies slowing international student processing. New transfer enrollment rose 0.9 percent to 12,993, while first-time freshman enrollment fell 1.2 percent to 40,228. The Michigan Achievement Scholarship, now in its fourth year, offers eligible students up to $5,500 a year.
