Notes on this filing
  • Filing year: CDS 2024-2025 data for Fall 2024 enrollment; G1 costs are labeled for 2025-26, so the cost figures may be for a different year than the admissions data.
  • C2: waitlist policy answered No and the waitlist table is blank; all waitlist fields left null.
  • C8A: SAT/ACT not used in admission (No); C8D, C8E and C8F are blank/No; C9 test score percentiles and submission percentages are blank, so all test fields are null.
  • C11: pct_below_3_50 is the sum of the bands 3.25-3.49 (15), 3.00-3.24 (13), 2.50-2.99 (20), 2.0-2.49 (11), 1.0-1.99 (3), below 1.0 (0) = 62. Bands are from the all-enrolled column; C12 average GPA (3.21) is for submitters.
  • B4-B11 (Fall 2018 cohort): the four-year completion rate is not printed; 617 of 1,266 final-cohort students completed in four years, but no percentage is stated, so grad_rate_4yr is null. Six-year rate 0.5521 is from the filing.
  • G1: in-state figure is the in-district tuition (11,870); no separate out-of-district tuition printed. Required fees and food and housing are the first-year figures.
  • H2: figures use the full-time first-time first-year column. avg_need_based_package uses line J (average financial aid package, all aid types) because no need-only package figure is printed. avg_need_based_grant uses line K. pct_need_fully_met = 153 / 648 = 23.6 (line h / line d). pct_with_need_awarded_aid is not printed, so null.
  • H1/H2 data are for 2023-24 final aid year (per form checkbox).
