Idaho Falls, Idaho — As College of Eastern Idaho (CEI) wraps up the second
week of the semester, CEI continues to buck the national trend of enrollment
declines, instead announcing a 4.7 percent increase in credit student enrollment
over spring 2022. 1,510 students are enrolled in credit-seeking courses this spring,
up from 1,442 this time last year. Notably, the College is likely to see an even
higher increase in credit-seeking students as the semester continues due to the
later registration period for early college students – high school students taking
college courses – which aligns with their trimester system.
