## Caption

The University of Cincinnati welcomes a record first-year class for the 2026-27 academic year, with 9,679 incoming students from across Ohio, the nation and the world! 🐾

More than 75% of the incoming class comes from Ohio, while students represent 45 states plus Washington, D.C., and 43 countries. Nearly 39% of first-year students identify as first-generation college students, reflecting UC’s continued role in expanding access to higher education.

That commitment also includes affordability. Launched in January, the Bearcats Affordability Grant provides tuition-free college for eligible Ohio students from families earning less than $75,000 per year by covering remaining tuition costs for Pell-eligible Ohio residents.

Behind every number is a new Bearcat beginning their own path at UC.

Welcome, Class of 2030. ❤️🖤
