Hello everyone, I'm trying to get a sense of what campus life is like at different schools. For me, the size of the student body is a significant factor. Can anyone tell me how many students go to Duke? Thanks in advance.
Absolutely, the size of a school's student body can indeed greatly impact the campus life and one's college experience. According to the most recent data, Duke University has approximately 6,400 undergraduate students. This places Duke in the medium-sized category for universities. In addition to the undergraduate students, Duke also has around 10,400 graduate and professional students, bringing the total student population to about 16,800.
This blend of undergraduate and graduate students can foster a rich academic environment with a diverse range of perspectives. Also noteworthy is that despite having a significant student body, Duke still manages to maintain a relatively low student-to-faculty ratio, ensuring smaller class sizes and more personalized attention from faculty.
