I was talking to someone from the college a few weeks ago and asked how many students were enrolled. She said 400. I remember when HAC had as many as 1500 at one time. Sad to hear that.

I think at its apex, the college had in excess of 2,000 students. It is a dying school and for those of us who went decades ago, it's sad.
 
After the Schaap debacle, I'm surprised, but glad, it is still open. Bro. Wilkerson is not a barn burner like Schaap or Hyles were, but he is steady, decent and godly man. I know people wish he would do some things different, but overall, he's doing a good job keeping the college afloat. I'm not sure that there's an IFB college that has many more students. Maybe someone can enlighten me about the attendances of other schools that are considered IFB.

Clemson has close to 30,000 or so.

Here’s something scary: the University of Central Florida in Orlando has nearly 70,000! 😳

My daughter attended there last year and I went to a chapel service, looked to be about 400 there, but there are probably quite a few who do online learning.

Maranatha currently has approximately 550 on-campus students when combining both residential and commuting students.

Maranatha Online and Distance Learning has between seven- and eight-hundred students enrolled each year.

Oh, I've been corrected by the person who never comes here except to correct people on Maranatha questions. Ok, so they have 1200 or so. Its far bigger than Hyles.

Was told by a HAC teacher that there were approximately 400 students. I remember in it's hey days, 1500. Sad to think that many of HB graduates are going to Pensacola, along with many teachers.

Going back to the "Hyles" years, it always confounded me how that you could never get a straight answer on attendance numbers, especially at the college. I think maybe it was because they didn't really want to outright lie, but they wanted to leave the impression that the number was higher than it actually was.

That said, I believe that at it's highest, perhaps in the early eighties, on campus enrollment was closer to two thousand. Regardless, it's a bit sad to see how it has shrunk, maybe as much as 80%. It's remarkable that they have been able to keep the doors open.

I agree. The attendance numbers were mentioned in chapel a few times in the early to mid '80's. The number around 2,200. I could get the yearbook out and count! Maybe I could invite everybody over to help.

I find that encouraging! 1500 down, 400 to go!
