Tabor College’s 2025 spring retention is its second-best on record, reaching 93 percent and having all four classes retain 90 percent or more of their students. The achievement also brings the college’s 10-year average to 89 percent.
“These outstanding retention and graduate numbers confirm that students are thriving at Tabor College,” President David Janzen says. “I am so proud of our faculty, coaches and staff who serve students very well and the students who engage with our campus culture and decidedly Christian mission.”
The total spring 2025 semester enrollment is 635. That includes 465 undergraduate students on campus, 61 in dual-credit classes and 109 in the college’s graduate programs. With the addition of the healthcare leadership concentration to its M.B.A., the college’s diverse graduate portfolio continues to blossom with a second-straight spring of record enrollment.
“I’m very grateful for our faculty and staff’s dedication to the lives of our students,” Provost Frank Johnson says. “Retention of this magnitude is a massive achievement, and I’m humbled to serve alongside them as we fulfill our calling in leading our students.”

Tabor College is the Mennonite Brethren college located in Hillsboro, Kansas. The mission of Tabor College, founded in 1908, is to prepare people for a life of learning, work and service for Christ and his kingdom.
