Notes on this filing
  • Year: financial aid reporting year is 2024-2025 (H101), so the filing is treated as 2024-25.
  • C1: applied, admitted and enrolled use the all-gender totals (C117-C119), which equal the sums of the gender rows.
  • C2: waitlist counts mapped by position: offered a place 3867 (C202), accepted place 1014 (C203), admitted from waitlist 215 (C204).
  • C2: early action is marked offered (C2201 Y) but no applied or admitted counts are printed.
  • C7: recommendations factor (C706) is blank, so null.
  • C8: policy summarized from C802-C804 (SAT/ACT not required, considered if submitted) and C8G placement tests (SAT, ACT, institutional exam). C8F clarification is blank.
  • G1: private institution with one tuition rate (G101/G102 both 48800), so in-state and out-of-state are null. First-year column used for tuition, fees and food and housing (G112).
  • Graduation: the four-year rate is not printed. The four-year completer count is 905 of 1299 (B413-B404 cohort) but no rate is stated, so grad_rate_4yr is null. The six-year rate 79.6 is printed as 0.7960 (B432).
  • Retention rate 86.1 is from B2201 (Fall 2023 first-year cohort to Fall 2024).
  • H2: pct_with_need_awarded_aid is not printed as a percentage, so null (line d 719 of line c 719). pct_need_fully_met computed as line h 224 / line d 719 = 31.2%.
  • H2: average package and grant rounded to the nearest dollar from 35830.51 and 28472.58.
  • Percentages from fractional CDS items were rounded to one decimal place.
