Copiah-Lincoln Community College tops 3,000 students for first time since 2019

Copiah Lincoln Community College was ranked first in student success last year for the third consecutive year.

WESSON — Copiah-Lincoln Community College has surpassed 3,000 students for the first time in six years, marking a milestone in enrollment growth, school officials announced this week.

A total of 3,018 students are enrolled this fall across Co-Lin’s three campuses and online programs. The college has seen steady growth since spring 2023.

“The continued success of our college is a direct reflection of the people who make up the Co-Lin family,” President Dewayne Middleton said in a statement. “We are proud of our students, grateful to our faculty and staff, and thankful for the leadership and support of our Board of Trustees. Most importantly, we are honored by each student who has chosen Co-Lin as the place to further their education.”

Middleton credited students, faculty, staff and the Board of Trustees for helping drive the growth.

Co-Lin serves students in southwest and central Mississippi through academic, career-technical, workforce and adult education programs, as well as student life activities.
