It's an effective strategy especially for private schools. Many of our D3 schools get 40-60% of their freshmen as student athletes. They play a JV season to try to keep as many of the freshmen as possible engaged. They are great for us to use to develop new college officials.

University of Jamestown has again been ranked as one of the best academic institutions in the Midwest by both U.S. News and World Report’s “2022 Best Colleges” and The Princeton Review’s “2022 Best Colleges: Region by Region”
Dr. Polly Peterson, University of Jamestown President, credits the Jimmie community as one of the top reasons the University continues to be ranked in these publications. “The University has been blessed to have the support of faculty, staff, and alumni who have helped make UJ a place of distinction in the region,” said Dr. Peterson. “With the addition of new programs, improved facilities and a substantial increase in our endowment, we have achieved significant enrollment growth, improved retention and graduation rates, and acheived a 99% placement rate.”

JAMESTOWN, N.D.: Among a national decline in higher education enrollment, University of Jamestown has achieved success in breaking its enrollment record, and welcoming the largest number of students to campus in the University’s history for the 21-22 academic year. A total of 1,295 students will be taking classes at UJ this year, which includes 469 new students (376 undergraduate and 93 graduate), and 826 returning students. This is the second year in a row that University of Jamestown has continued to increase enrollment.
The University’s shocking 23% increase in enrollment far exceeded the national higher education enrollment estimates, which, according to the National Student Clearinghouse Research Center, showed a 3.5% decline.
