St. Clair College has hit a record enrolment number again this year

“From the institutional standpoint of the short-term stability and long-term sustainability of the College, I’m always encouraged to see strong enrolment numbers,” said President Patti France.

The college reports large enrolment numbers programs offered downtown including in the School of Media, Art and Design, the St. Clair College Centre for the Arts and the Zekelman School of Business and IT.

It total there are 2,836 students enrolled in the downtown programs, compared to just over 900 two years ago.
