Notes on this filing
  • Year: filing is the 2025-26 CDS (Fall 2025 enrollment, 2026-27 costs). Aid items H1/H2 are 2024-25 final data per H.101.
  • C.116/C.117: printed applied total 11805 and admitted total 8477 do not match the sum of sex-specific and unknown rows (applied 5722+6083+108=11913; admitted 4083+4394+51=8528). Printed totals used.
  • C.118: enrolled total 2410 matches male, female and unknown enrolled rows.
  • C.201: waitlist policy answered No; C.202-C.204 blank, so waitlist counts are null.
  • C.2101 and C.2201: early decision and early action both answered No.
  • C.8A: SAT/ACT used in admissions, but the requirement checkboxes are unmarked and C.8F clarification is blank. C.8G lists SAT, ACT, CLEP and institutional exam for placement only.
  • C.905-C.907: SAT composite percentiles are blank in the filing; set to null.
  • C.1121-C.1124 (all enrolled column) used for GPA bands. pct_below_3_50 = sum of printed bands 3.25-3.49 (12.8237), 3.00-3.24 (10.9023), 2.50-2.99 (10.944) and 2.0-2.49 (1.5873). The 1.0-1.99 and below-1.0 bands are blank and counted as zero.
  • B.429-B.432 (2019 cohort, most recent bachelor's cohort): six-year rate printed as 0.6014, shown as 60.1. The four-year rate is not printed, so grad_rate_4yr is null.
  • H.2 pct_with_need_awarded_aid: the filing prints counts only (line d / line c), not a percent, so it is null.
  • H.2 pct_need_fully_met computed as line h 261 / line d 1311 = 19.9%.
  • G.1: public institution with one in-district tuition figure of 7010 and one out-of-state figure of 13751. Per the rules, tuition is null and in-state and out-of-state are filled. In-district and in-state (out-of-district) are both 7010.
  • B.2203 retention given as 0.78, shown as 78.
