Retention rates jump for HU

This year, Huntington University saw its highest freshman-to-sophomore retention rate in more than a decade, in part due to freezing tuition and the university’s Loan Repayment Program.

For 2012-13, the university saw a 73 percent retention rate. Today, that rate has jumped to 79.5 percent. The university welcomed 943 traditional undergraduate students this fall, 110 adult students and 60 graduate students. The new student class this year is 267 with a total headcount of all students at 1,113.
