Hey! I've been considering New Mexico State University lately, but I can't find clear information about the size of their student body. I like smaller, more close-knit communities, so the size is pretty important to me. Thanks in advance!
New Mexico State University, located in Las Cruces, has a student population of approximately 14,000. This represents a moderately sized university. While it's not as small as a liberal arts college, it's not as large as some of the big state schools that have over 30,000 students. It can provide a balance between those extremes and may still provide those close-knit communities you're looking for. Usually, it's the making connections part that's important, and many universities offer ample opportunities for this through a variety of clubs, organizations, and smaller communities within them. So while you gauge a school's size, also consider exploring the campus life and student activities provided.
