Notes on this filing
  • Filing is titled Common Data Set 2024-2025 but admissions and enrollment data are for Fall 2025; year set to the filing title.
  • C1: applied total (5020), admitted (3369) and enrolled (744) were summed from male/female/unknown rows; the printed residency table matches the 5020 applied total.
  • C2: waitlist policy is No and all waitlist count fields are blank, so waitlist values are null.
  • C21/C22: early decision and early action are marked No; applicant and admit counts are not printed.
  • C8A marks SAT/ACT not used in admission, while C8F says test scores may be requested case by case; C8D says scores are used for advising. Summary follows C8F and C8A together.
  • B4-B11: the 4-year graduation rate is not printed (only the 6-year rate, 63%, is printed), so grad_rate_4yr is null. Fall 2019 cohort used.
  • H2: pct_need_fully_met computed as line h (246) / line d (460) = 53.5%. avg_need_based_grant uses line k (need-based scholarship/grant average). pct_with_need_awarded_aid is not printed and was left null.
  • G1: the 2026-27 cost checkbox is marked not yet available, yet cost figures are filled in; values are used as printed. Tuition is a single rate for all undergraduates, so in-state and out-of-state are null.
  • GPA: pct_below_3_50 is the sum of the printed C11 all-enrolled bands below 3.50 (14.1 + 8.3 + 0.7 = 23.1). pct_submitting uses C12 (100%).
