This fall, the University of Florida College of Health & Human Performance celebrated a record enrollment of 3,000 students – a 20 percent increase from five years ago.

“We’re thrilled to set a new milestone in our enrollment numbers this fall,” said Michael Reid, Ph.D., dean. “The enrollment numbers are a testimony to the outstanding educational program offered in the college.”

Five years ago, college enrollment was less than 2,500 students. Of the 3,000 students, one-third of students are pursuing their degree in one of seven programs offered online.

Additionally, the college welcomed four new faculty bringing the total number of faculty to 77.
