Notes on this filing
  • C1: applied/admitted/enrolled totals summed from male/female rows; they match the printed C1 residency-table totals (7,628 / 6,821 / 1,391).
  • C2: school reports no waitlist policy; waitlist counts left blank.
  • C8A: Yes/No box left blank. Policy taken from the C8 table: 'Not required for admission, but considered if submitted'. C8F clarification is blank.
  • C9: ACT percentiles are printed as 0 with 0% of students submitting ACT. These are treated as not reported (null).
  • B4-B11: the 4-year graduation rate is not printed and was not computed. Fall 2019 cohort: 567 of 1,392 graduated within four years. 6-year rate of 55.4% is for the Fall 2019 cohort.
  • G0: the box is checked saying 2026-27 costs are not final (expected 15-Jul), yet G1 figures are printed. These may be preliminary.
  • G1: out-of-state tuition is $12,590 but a separate 'Nonresident' tuition of $19,986 is listed. G6 out-of-state per-credit charge is $833, which equals about $24,990 for 30 credits, inconsistent with both. The out-of-state figure may reflect the 40% Out-of-State Tuition Reduction Program.
  • G1: room_and_board uses the 'Food and housing (on-campus)' first-year figure of $12,550.
  • H1: academic-year indicator is checked in the 2024-2025 Final column, so H2 aid figures likely refer to the 2024-25 cohort (first-year line a = 1,269, matching B22 Fall 2024 cohort).
  • H2: pct_with_need_awarded_aid is not printed and was left null. First-year counts: 834 awarded aid of 836 with need.
  • H2: pct_need_fully_met computed as line h / line d = 65/834.
