approximately 96,100, and the Dallas/Fort Worth area had over 5.6 million people
(Clark, Fuentes, Donzello, & Todd, 2005). The university is accredited by the
Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. Since
1999, the University of North Texas is the 4th largest university in Texas and among the
50 largest universities in the Unites States (Clark et al., 2012).
Enrollment at the University of North Texas (UNT)
The University of North Texas (UNT) currently has an enrollment of over 35,000
students. Over 28,000 of these students are undergraduate students. Approximately
4,000 students are considered first-time freshman, and 3,650 are new undergraduate
transfer students (Clark et al., 2012). In 1995, UNT's enrollment was just over 25,000
students with 18,600 being undergraduate students. At that time 2,230 students were
classified as first-time freshman, and 2,580 were new undergraduate transfer students
(Jones et al., 1995). Enrollment fluctuated year to year but as a whole grew over the
ten year time span. By 2005, the enrollment at UNT was 31,160 students with 24,270
undergraduate students. Of these, 3,540 were first-time freshman and 3,000 were new
undergraduate transfers (Clark et al., 2005). During this time a transition was occurring
at the University of North Texas. Although the numbers were close, transfer students
outnumbered first-time freshman until 1998-99; since then first-time freshman have
outnumbered new undergraduate transfer students by narrow margins.
