Notes on this filing
  • Year assumed to be 2025-26 from cost section (G1) and test policy referencing Fall 2026; enrollment data is Fall 2024.
  • C8A marks SAT/ACT as 'Required for some', but C8F says tests are strongly recommended for placement and advising. Per instructions, C8F was trusted for the policy summary.
  • C1 applicant, admit and enrollee totals were taken from the residency table (3587 applied, 3587 admitted, 2902 enrolled); enrollee status sums (677+527+872+756+37+33) match 2902.
  • C2: policy for waitlist is No and all waitlist counts are blank.
  • Early decision and early action: both marked No, so offered=false and counts are null.
  • B4-B11 graduation rate grids are blank; the two-year completer/transfer section (B12-B21) gives counts only, with no rate printed. Graduation rates set to null.
  • B22: retention percentage is not printed; set to null.
  • G1 tuition is split by residency (public institution), so the general tuition field is null. In-district and in-state values are both 1943.
  • G1 food and housing (on-campus) is blank; room_and_board is null. G5 commuter food and housing (18362) was not used because it is not a G1 figure.
  • G1 'Other' notes that out-of-state fees vary; no fee amount is given.
  • C7: every factor is marked 'Not Considered'.
  • C11 'All enrolled students' column used for GPA bands; pct_below_3_50 is the sum of the 3.25-3.49, 3.00-3.24, 2.50-2.99, 2.0-2.49, 1.0-1.99 and below-1.0 bands (14+16+31+22+0+0=83).
  • H2 pct_need_fully_met = line h (35) / line d (1203) = 2.9%, using the first-time first-year column as instructed. Line d is defined as any aid awarded, not strictly need-based aid, so this is a proxy.
  • H2 pct_with_need_awarded_aid is not printed as a figure and was not computed; null.
  • avg_need_based_package uses H2 line J (average financial aid package of line d students), which is not strictly need-based; value copied as printed.
  • H1 column headers show both '2024-2025 estimated' and '2023-2024 Final' with an unclear X placement; the H2 year reference is also unclear. The first-year H2 data is treated as the reporting cohort.
