UNT even with 47k students struggles to get major attendance numbers. A true commuter school.

Is UL a true commuter school?

But there athletic budget benefits from the enrollment.

The importance of on line courses.

Is a commuter school one where the majority don’t live within walking distance to class?

Is a commuter school one where the majority don’t live within walking distance to class?

By definition, yes. But the term has become so convoluted its lost it meaning. Modern student do not wanna live in dorm and with kids getting their own vehicles younger, most chose to live further away from campus. The majority of LSU students live off campus but I wouldn't consider it a commuter school.

Schools like Georgia would use the term to try and denigrate Georgia Tech. Even though GT is a more prestigious academic University. Florida, being a blue blood, would say UCF and USF were commuter schools but you can argue that South Florida has better academics and UCF has pretty good student involvement. USC and UCLA are both urban Universities where most of their students live away from campus but no one considers them commuter schools either.

[Louisiana84]

Because the majority are not degree seeking students.

LSU counts them. They count people who are showing up for certificate classes.

Here you go fresh off the presses

"UL Lafayette released Fall 2023 enrollment data on Thursday. Its overall enrollment is 19,056 – a 1% increase over last fall.

Of that total, 15,345 students – 13,179 undergraduate students and 2,166 graduate students – are degree-seeking.

An additional 3,711 non-credit-bearing students are enrolled. Non-credit bearing students include those who take training courses, pursue certifications and enroll in Professional and Continuing Education classes."
