Notes on this filing
  • Admissions totals (applied 3671, admitted 3216, enrolled 390) are summed from the C1 male/female/unknown cells because no total is printed; enrolled also matches the C1 full-time/part-time breakdown.
  • C2: waitlist policy is recorded as No (AD_WAIT: N) and all waitlist counts are blank, so they are null.
  • C1 early decision: ED plan not offered (AD_EDEC: N). Early action is offered (notification 11/13) but its applied and admitted counts are not reported.
  • C7: the nonacademic rows are mapped by position to Q112 fields, which skip number 10. Volunteer work reads Q112_11, work experience Q112_12, and level of interest Q112_13. Verify these three.
  • C8A: the Yes/No checkbox is unchecked, but ADMS=N, so the test policy is taken as not used for admission. C8F is blank. Placement use (SAT, ACT, AP, institutional exam) is from C8G.
  • C9-C10: no test-score percentiles or submission rates are printed, so they are null.
  • G1: the tuition of $44,200 is a private-institution figure. Required fees are blank.
  • B4-B21: the Fall 2019 cohort 4-year figure is printed as 0 in line D, but line G (226) does not equal D+E+F (0). The 4-year rate is therefore null. The 6-year rate of 50 is the printed H total for the Fall 2019 cohort.
  • H2: the 'pct with need awarded aid' figure is not printed and is left null. Fully-met percent is computed as line h (38) divided by line d (267, awarded any aid, used as the need-based base per the rule), giving 14.2.
  • H2 line J (average financial aid package) is used for avg_need_based_package, and H2 line K for avg_need_based_grant.
  • H1/H2 academic year checkbox is unmarked, but the hidden field ACAD_YR reads 2023. The year is not confirmed.
  • Retention rate 72 is the printed H-section figure (241 of 337 = 71.5).
