Poteau, OK— Carl Albert State College (CASC) is proud to announce a significant increase in enrollment for the Fall 2025 semester, reflecting the college’s ongoing commitment to accessible, affordable, and high-quality education for students across the region.
Preliminary numbers, based on enrollment as of the first day of the semester, show:
- Overall Headcount: Up 7%
- Credit Hours: Up 9%
- Concurrent Enrollment: Up 15% (building on an 18% increase in Fall 2024)
“These numbers are a testament to the hard work of our faculty, staff, and community partners,” said President Jay Falkner. “More students are choosing Carl Albert because they see the value of a high-quality education close to home—with flexible options to fit their lives.”
The increase in concurrent enrollment underscores CASC’s strong partnerships with area high schools, helping students earn college credit while still in high school—saving time and money on their path to a degree.
