BUTLER TWP — Enrollment at Butler County Community College continues to increase, and that is fueling two building projects.

The college now has 3,897 students, which is up 12 percent from this time last year. That's also 200 students more than any semester's final total.

"We have late start classes still enrolling," President Nick Neupauer said Wednesday. He said that full-time student registration is up more than 20 percent and that the growth is spread across all campuses.

He added that while it's early in the summer registration process, enrollment for that session is up 15 percent from this time last year.
