Notes on this filing

Admissions: applied (53007), admitted (20464) are the sums of the C1 men/women/another-gender rows; they match the residency table totals.
Enrolled: C1 enrollee rows sum to 3245 with another gender at 0, but the residency table and B3 show 3248. B1 shows 3 full-time first-year another-gender students, so 3248 is used.
C2: waitlist block has no labels for the rows; mapped by position as offered (13,341), accepted a place (4,272), admitted from waitlist (842).
C21: early decision answered No. C22: early action is nonbinding and answered Yes; closing 11/1, notification 1/15. Early action enrolled count (2,215) is not in the schema.
C8A: SAT or ACT is marked 'Required for some'. C8F gives only a URL to the full test-optional policy, so the summary is based on the checkbox.
Graduation: the 4-year rate is not printed (D/C from the Fall 2018 cohort would be needed), so it is left null. The 6-year rate of 82% is printed in the Total column of B4-B21 line H.
Retention: the 89.50% figure is from B22 (Fall 2023 cohort retained to Fall 2024).
Aid: pct_with_need_awarded_aid is not printed and is left null. pct_need_fully_met is computed as H2 line H (311) divided by line D (1,502), i.e. 20.7%. Other aid figures are from the first-time, full-time first-year column.
Cost: G1 instructions ask for 2025-2026 costs, but the table is labeled 2024-2025 academic year costs. Food and housing is blank. Tuition is public: in-district 7,070 is used as in-state and out-of-state is 26,950.
B1: the 'Total undergraduate Students' row appears to have men and women swapped (men 7,631, women 7,033), since FT plus PT men is 7,033 and women is 7,632. The grand total of 14,668 is consistent.
