Notes on this filing
  • Year: filing is the 2023-2024 CDS; costs in G1 are labeled 2024-2025 and were taken as printed.
  • A1/C1: no total printed for applied/admitted rows; used the totals printed in the second C1 table (8,331 applied, 6,162 admitted). Enrolled 781 matches the gender-column sum.
  • C2: waitlist block mapped by position: offered 50, accepted a place 29, admitted from waitlist 10. Ranked waitlist answered No; follow-up release questions blank.
  • C21: early decision offered = No; early decision counts not provided.
  • C22: number of early action applicants enrolled left blank.
  • C8: SAT/ACT listed as Recommended; ACT-only and SAT-only fields blank; C8F states holistic review. No conflict found.
  • C11: pct_below_3_50 computed as the sum of the bands 3.25-3.49 (14), 3.00-3.24 (14), 2.50-2.99 (18), 2.0-2.49 (7), 1.0-1.99 (1), below 1.0 (0) = 54, using the all-enrolled column.
  • B4-B21: 2017 cohort used. 4-year graduation rate (D/C) is not printed, so null. The 6-year rate row (H) prints '1' for every column, which appears to be a formatting error and does not match G/C = 249/467; left null. The 8-year overall graduation rate of 53% is printed in the Student Achievement section but has no schema field.
  • H2: first-time, full-time first-year column used. pct_need_fully_met = 49/401 = 12.2% (line H over line D). pct_with_need_awarded_aid is not printed (would be D/C = 401/405), so left null.
  • H2 J is the average aid package for all awarded students, not need-based only; used as printed for avg_need_based_package. Avg need-based grant taken from H2 K.
  • G5/G6: per-credit tuition is printed for private schools ($1,200) and omitted from the schema. Room and board uses the food and housing figure.
