University leaders expect Marshall to see a third-straight year of enrollment growth in 2025-26. Marshall President Brad D. Smith updated the university’s board of governors on expected enrollment where preliminary figures indicate fall enrollment is on track to increase for a third consecutive year, according to a news release. The recent trend has reversed more than a decade of enrollment decline. An increase in enrollment prompted early considerations about on-campus housing capacity, but all students who want to live on campus will be accommodated through a variety of on-campus housing options.
