Notes on this filing
  • Year: admissions and enrollment are Fall 2024 data; costs are 2025-26; aid figures are 2024-25 estimated (H1 flag).
  • C1: no total line printed; applied, admitted and enrolled were summed from the gender rows (39580, 29843, 4192). Enrolled matches the residency table total.
  • C1/B1 vs H2: first-time full-time first-year enrollees are 4184 in C1/B1 (1921+2263), but H2 line a reports 4110. Not reconciled.
  • C2: waitlist block is printed with three counts (offered 5144, accepted 632, admitted 236) but the policy checkbox position is unclear; waitlist ranking and release questions are blank.
  • C7: column positions inferred from tab alignment in the text extract; the academic rows had no clear column markers.
  • C8A/C8F: C8F clarification is blank, so the policy rests on the C8A checkbox alone.
  • C8E: latest SAT/ACT score date is blank.
  • C21: early decision offered flag inferred from the printed closing date and application counts.
  • C22: early action offered flag inferred from the printed dates. Early action applicant and admit counts are not printed. Early action notification date (Jan 31 2025) falls before the closing date (Nov 30 2025), which is inconsistent.
  • C22: early action 'restrictive' question left blank.
  • C13/C14: application closing date printed as Jan 31 2025; ED and EA dates appear to refer to a later admissions cycle.
  • B4-B11: the Fall 2018 cohort is used (most recent). The 4-year graduation rate is not printed, so grad_rate_4yr is null.
  • B4-B11: the six-year rate is printed as a fraction (0.7978587815447362) and converted to a percent without rounding.
  • G1: public institution with separate in-district/in-state and out-of-state tuition; tuition is left null. The first-year column is used.
  • G1: room_and_board 17154 equals housing 10594 plus food 6560.
  • H2 line I/J/K: avg_need_based_package uses line J (average financial aid package, all aid excluding PLUS/unsubsidized/private loans) because no need-based-only package is printed.
  • H2: pct_with_need_awarded_aid is not printed as a percent and was not computed, so it is null.
  • H2: pct_need_fully_met computed as line H (338) divided by line D (1706) = 19.8%, per the stated rule.
