STUDENT POPULATION

Consistent with our mission, a diverse student body is represented and supported by providing a safe environment so our students can enhance and achieve academic potential. Currently, our shared campus is home to 388 degree-seeking students at Bay Atlantic University and 396 non-degree students at Mentora College. Together, they create a vibrant community that truly exemplifies diversity, one of our core institutional values.

At Bay Atlantic University, our degree-seeking student body is overwhelmingly global, with international students making up over 93% of our population. We maintain a well-balanced gender distribution, consisting of roughly 55% male and 45% female students. While our campus welcomes individuals from over 50 different countries , our largest international cohorts bring rich perspectives from Turkey (representing about 41% of the student body), as well as India, Colombia, and Mongolia.
