The university is on track to grow to 50,000 students by early in the next decade, thousands of whom will be housed in high-rise dorms
An enrollment boom that began more than a decade ago at UC San Diego has sped up, with a record 42,376 students now flooding a campus with four major construction projects underway and a massive housing village on the drawing board. The university said enrollment grew by 370 students during the fall quarter, slightly more than the 300 forecast by Chancellor Pradeep Khosla. The school added only 121 a year earlier.
also said there were 1,005 clinical residents this fall, which wouldpush the overall enrollment number to 43,381. However, the University of California Office of the President doesn't include those figures for individual campuses. Either way, the La Jolla campus is surging. The school's fall enrollment has not dipped since 2012, when Khosla took charge of a school that then had about 29,000 students. He expects enrollment to hit 50,000 by early in the next decade.
, which has lots of space and the desire to expand. That has led to a campus housing shortage. More than 2,200 students were on waiting lists for housing when the fall quarter began, and few found a spot. The university is in the process of building three large student villages that will collectively add 5,700 beds between early next year and late 2025. The construction has disrupted the flow of foot traffic in several areas on campus, making it harder to get around an already crowded school.
