The numbers are in for the College of the North Atlantic and while overall enrolment is down, domestic numbers remain steady.

Over 5,800 students make their way to CNA campuses daily, a drop of 6.1 per cent from last year. most of that is due to changes by the federal government on immigration levels.

Elizabeth Winney, President and CEO of the post secondary institute, says they are entering a year of change and while international enrolment is down, CNA remains on solid ground.

International numbers are down 38 per cent over last year, but with 576 students enrolling from 38 countries, she says CNA’s global community remains its third largest ever. The college had seen all-time high international enrolment last year and the year before.
