We're beginning to, in a very strategic way, expand our out-of-state student population.
We've seen that increase by 33% over the last five years.
We've seen our out-of-state, excuse me, our international student population increase by almost 25% over the last five years.
And so our goal is to make sure that any qualified North Carolinian that wants a seat at ECU, that we provide it to 'em.
And then that we also go out to different parts of our country and our world and bring in individuals from outside of the state of North Carolina, connect 'em to the Greenville and North Carolina community, and hopefully get 'em a great job back in the states that we add to the economic vitality of our state.
