Online Studies, Off-Campus Sites Drive Growth of Saint Leo University

Now, most Saint Leo University students take some, or all, of their classes online. And enrollment at the Catholic college has nearly doubled in 20 years, from 7,500 in 1997 to 14,600 in 2016. Only a small portion of those students step foot on Saint Leo's main campus west of Dade City.  And Saint Leo is endeavoring to grow even more, particularly on the national level, by marketing itself as a university that can provide a faith-based education to any student, anywhere.
