With many schools struggling to maintain enrollment levels, it's great to see URI doing so well.

I think it has been that way for incoming classes for the last several years per my recollection. URI however has issues in retaining students, especially out of state students that are paying the higher tuition and possibly homesick. The ratio eventually flips in favor of RI kids for all years enrolled. I believe that this trend has existed as of late.
