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.
