University of Michigan sees enrollment rise again

ANN ARBOR (AP) -- The University of Michigan says it has its largest student body in school history for the fourth consecutive year.
AnnArbor.com reports enrollment at the university's Ann Arbor campus is 43,426, up 1.7 percent from fall 2011. The increase comes despite a 1.3 percent decline in freshmen enrollment to 6,171. The number of freshmen the previous two years led to a housing crunch and some larger classes.
Overall, there are 27,979 undergraduates and 15,447 graduate students.
The University of Michigan has said it has seen six consecutive years with a record number of applications.
