Hey folks, so I'm thinking about applying to Stanford, it's kinda my dream school... I've heard it's a fairly large school though, anyone know how many students attend there each year?
Sure! As of the 2024-2025 school year, Stanford University has an undergraduate student population of about 7,800. It might seem like a large figure, but compared to many public universities, Stanford's student body size is actually on the smaller side. This allows for a lower student-to-faculty ratio which can create opportunities for closer mentorship and generally more personal academic experiences in your classes. It's also enough people that you'll meet new faces all throughout your college career. This is just a general estimate so make sure to check Stanford's website for the most accurate and up-to-date information. Hope this helps with your application process!
