Hey there, folks. Been doing a bit of research and found myself quite curious about this. Does anyone know which university in the US actually has the largest student body? Just looking for some stats. Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Hello! Looking at universities across the United States, the one with the largest student body (including both undergraduate and graduate students) is the University of Central Florida (UCF) in Orlando, with a student population that often exceeds 69,000.
However, if you're interested in the university with the largest undergraduate student body specifically, that honor goes to Texas A&M University in College Station, Texas. They boast a substantial undergraduate population, often exceeding 60,000 students.
Of course, these numbers can fluctuate each year with new admissions, student retention, and graduation rates, plus the growth of online and hybrid learning programs. So, it’s always a good idea to check each university's official published statistics for the most accurate and current information.
