Notes on this filing
  • C1: men applied 22199 plus women 32855 sums to 55054, but the printed total is 55056; printed total used.
  • C2: the filing answers 'No' to having a waitlist policy, so waitlist counts are null.
  • C22: early action is offered (closing Nov 1, notification Dec 1), but applicant and admit counts are not printed; early decision is not offered.
  • C8A: tests are marked 'Consider if Submitted' for Fall 2026 admission; C8F clarification is blank, so no conflict.
  • C12/C9: SAT (16%) and ACT (76%) submitters total 92%; the remainder is not explained.
  • C7: no program-level variation in factor importance is provided.
  • Graduation: the 4-year rate is not printed as a rate (D/C would be 2882/4771 but is not reported), so it is null. The 6-year rate of 82 is the printed Fall 2018 total (H).
  • Fall 2018 cohort: the Pell (0.69) and Stafford (0.79) rates are printed, but only the total 6-year rate is used here.
  • Retention 94.7 is from the printed fraction 0.947 for Fall 2023 first-time, full-time cohort.
  • H1/H2: aid is for 2023-24 final, not 2024-25. H2 line a (first-time, full-time first-year) is 5935, versus 6103 first-time first-year degree-seeking enrolled in C1/B1; the discrepancy is not explained.
  • H2: pct_need_fully_met = 452/2108 = 21.4%. pct_with_need_awarded_aid is not printed as a rate, so it is null (line d/c would be about 99.95%).
  • H2: avg_pct_need_met printed as 0.6, converted to 60.
  • G1: public school with different in-state (11016) and out-of-state (33048) tuition; tuition left null. Nonresident figure of 33198 differs from out-of-state 33048 and is not used.
  • G1: costs are 2024-25 figures; the filing checks that 2025-26 costs are not yet available.
  • G4: tuition varies by undergraduate program (51% of full-time undergraduates pay more than the G1 figure); not reflected in G1.
  • Sum of GPA bands below 3.50 is 0.0561 (5.61%); the printed 'Totals' line sums to 1, so the bands are consistent.
