Some Tampa Bay universities bringing in largest class ever. As many colleges across the country struggle with pandemic and post-pandemic registration, some Tampa Bay schools have record-breaking year ahead. USF says they're admitting the largest class ever for the third year in a row.
And, Polytechnic University in Lakeland just admitted its largest class ever too. Toss in Saint Leo in Pasco also bringing in their largest class for the third year in a row.
Not all local Colleges are in the Win column for enrollment. Hillsborough Community College, like many others around the country, seeing a dip in enrollment long before the existence of Covid-19. Then there's St. Petersburg College also continues to see dropping numbers in first-year enrollment.
While many hesitate to get back to campus, some schools here have a waiting list for campus housing. Looks like it's all about "earning potential" for some degrees, and activities for students outside class.
