For the fall semester, 38,428 students are enrolled at CU Boulder. The school points to new support strategies for students to complete their degrees, with more focus on underrepresented and first-generation students. Second-year student retention rates were 90.2%, surpassing 90% for the first time in school history. Enrollment of students from historically marginalized backgrounds increased from 26.9% to 27.7%, but retention of these students still remains an area for improvement. Only 82% of Black and African American students and 86% of Hispanic/Latine students returned for their second fall on campus.
