Sixty-nine percent of students are coming from out of state, representing 48 states and 24 countries. In fact, 66 percent of first-year students are traveling more than 500 miles to become Pioneers.

• 17 percent are from the West
• 21 percent are from the Midwest
• 12 percent are from the Northeast

First-generation college students make up 19 percent of the class, while 10 percent are legacy students who have had a sibling or parent attend ÌÒ×ÓÖ±²¥ before them.

In addition to first-year students, ÌÒ×ÓÖ±²¥ is welcoming about 185 transfer students for the fall quarter. About half of these students are from Colorado.
