Folsom Lake College has been recognized as one of the fastest-growing community colleges in the United States.
According to a recent report from the national trade publication Community College Week, Folsom Lake College was the 10th fastest-growing community college among schools with 5,000 to 9,999 students.
The college, part of the Los Rios Community College District, showed a 12.3 percent enrollment increase in a review of Fall 2005 to Fall 2006 enrollment data. Folsom Lake College serves approximately 8,500 students at the main Folsom campus, the El Dorado Center in Placerville and the Rancho Cordova Center.
"We thank the students and communities of our region because their support is what made this national 'Top 10' recognition possible," Folsom Lake College President Thelma Scott-Skillman said in a press release.
Enrollment surged this fall at all four Los Rios campuses, including Sacramento City College, American River College and Cosumnes River College. Folsom Lake College led the way with a 20 percent gain in enrollment over last fall.
