Notes on this filing
  • C1-C2: First-time, first-year totals are the sums of men and women (unknown reported as 0): applied 1104+225=1329, admitted 1009+214=1223, enrolled 360+73=433.
  • C2: Waitlist policy is 'No'; waitlist counts left blank (null).
  • Early decision: C21 marked No, so offered=false and counts are null.
  • Early action: C22 marked Yes (nonbinding, closing 11/1, notification 11/20), but applied and admitted counts are not printed (null).
  • C8A: SAT/ACT not used in admission and C8F is blank; C9 test-score percentiles and percent submitting are blank, so test fields are null.
  • C11: Score-band percentages are blank (only 0.00 totals printed), so GPA band fields are null and pct_below_3_50 cannot be summed.
  • B4-B11: 4-year graduation rate is not printed; line D (completed in four years) is 0 of a final cohort of 403, so grad_rate_4yr is left null. 6-year rate 73.45 is from the Fall 2019 cohort (most recent).
  • B22: Retention 85 is printed; 389/457 = 85.1%.
  • G1: Costs are first-year undergraduate column. Required fees are 11,877 for first-year but 9,905 for all undergraduates, which is unusual and should be verified.
  • H2: First-time, full-time first-year column. pct_need_fully_met = 164/244 = 67.2 (computed per the rule). avg_pct_need_met uses line I (89.00). avg_need_based_package uses line J (average financial aid package, all aid types, $28,604) since no need-based-only package is printed. avg_need_based_grant uses line K ($21,744).
  • H2: pct_with_need_awarded_aid is not printed as a percent, so left null (line D 244 of line C 244).
  • Year: Filing is for 2025-26 (Fall 2025 enrollment, 2024-25 degrees). Page 40 header reads 2024-2025 but its content is Fall 2025 data.
