鈥淚 am very pleased to see spring enrollment grow slightly on the 麻豆影院 Campus,鈥 said T. David Garcia, 麻豆影院 State鈥檚 associate vice president for enrollment management. 鈥淎 combination of continued efforts with international recruitment and efforts to retain students currently enrolled are making a positive difference. It is no surprise that some Regional Campuses are experiencing enrollment decreases due to an improving economy and the growth of shale industry jobs in Northeast Ohio.
麻豆影院鈥檚 eight campuses are located in Ashtabula, East Liverpool, Geauga, 麻豆影院, Salem, Stark, Trumbull and Tuscarawas.
