Notes on this filing
  • C1: applicant, admit and enrolled totals are sums of the gender/unknown columns (2,896 / 2,145 / 269), matching the residency table totals.
  • C2: waitlist policy question is unmarked and all waitlist counts are blank; left null.
  • C8A: SAT or ACT is marked 'Required for some'; C8A is labeled for Fall 2026 applicants. C8F clarification is blank.
  • C9/C10: SAT Math and the row labeled 'Writing' both show 540/580/650; the label 'Writing' is used for the ERW (evidence-based reading and writing) field, so this mapping is an inference.
  • C9: ACT percentile scores are not reported; ACT composite left null.
  • C21/C22: early decision and early action are offered (early action is nonbinding, not restrictive), but the number of applications and admits are blank.
  • Graduation rates: the 6-year rate is the printed Fall 2018 cohort total (59.6%). The 4-year rate is not printed; an unlabeled value 0.51863354 appears on page 5 (equal to 167/322), but it was not used.
  • G1: tuition, fees, and room and board cells are blank; cost fields left null.
  • H2: the percent of students awarded any aid is not printed as a rate and was left null. Percent fully met = 56/231 (line h / line d), rounded to one decimal.
  • H2: first-time full-time first-year column used for aid fields.
