Notes on this filing
  • C2: waitlist block not completed; C.201 policy answered No, so all waitlist counts are null.
  • C8F: clarification field blank; test policy taken from C8A checkboxes (SAT or ACT, SAT only, ACT only all 'not required but considered if submitted').
  • C.1201: average GPA printed as 3.5930539215686284; reported rounded to 3.59.
  • C.901/C.902: percentages converted from fractions and rounded to one decimal (11.27 and 53.92).
  • C11 below-3.50 bands: 3.25-3.49 (11.3) + 3.00-3.24 (7.8) + 2.50-2.99 (10.8) + 2.0-2.49 (3.4) = 33.3; the 1.0-1.99 and below-1.0 bands are blank.
  • B4-B11 (Fall 2019 cohort): only the six-year rate (60.9) is printed; the four-year rate is not printed and is left null.
  • H2 (first-time, full-time first-year column): percent with need who received aid not printed (line d/line c would be 100) and left null; pct_need_fully_met = 50/171 = 29.2 per the instruction to compute from counts.
  • H2: first-year column used; line H = 50 fully met, line D = 171 awarded any financial aid.
  • G1: private institution; tuition 38508 is the single tuition figure, so in-state/out-of-state are null. room_and_board is food and housing (on-campus) 13296, not separate housing and food.
  • C7/C.701 and C.703 values read from the checked column (Very Important for rigor; Important for GPA, essay, recommendations, extracurriculars, talent, character).
  • Consistency: SAT composite 75th percentile (1155) differs from the sum of the ERW and Math 75th percentiles (1197.5); reported as printed.
  • Retention rate is 173/235 from B22 (computed value in filing printed as 0.736...).
