1 Programs were retroactively accredited to the preceding year. Graduates from the previous year are considered to have graduated from an accredited program.
2 For those programs that are accredited by the various commissions of ABET, Inc, the date of the next general accreditation visit is available at ABET (search for Miami University). According to ABET guidelines, we are not permitted to report the period (number of years) of accreditation, and therefore are reporting the computing, engineering and engineering technology programs that are currently accredited.

Enrollments and Credit Hours
Miami University offers courses on three campuses and one learning center in Southwestern Ohio, as well as a European center in Luxembourg. Miami's enrollment goals emphasize quality. For Fall 2012, there were 20,314 applicants for the Oxford campus freshman class; 3,734 new freshmen were enrolled, with the middle 50% of those students having ACT scores between 24 and 29. Due to small yearly variations in freshman yield and the number of students graduating, as well as changes in graduate enrollment, overall enrollment tends to fluctuate from year to year.
