Notes on this filing
  • Admissions figures are first-time, first-year degree-seeking totals (males plus females; no unknown-sex entries); applied, admitted and enrolled match the C1 residency table totals.
  • C2: policy of placing students on a waiting list is 'No', so all waitlist counts are left null.
  • C7: the factor importance grid is blank in the filing, so all factors are null.
  • C8F: test-policy clarification is blank; policy summary is based on the C8A checkbox alone.
  • C21/C22: early decision and early action are both 'No'; counts left null.
  • Grad rate 4-year (B4-B11 line D) is printed as 0 with no subgroup detail and line E is also 0, while the 6-year rate is reported; treated as not reported and set to null.
  • 6-year graduation rate (50.77) is from the Fall 2019 cohort, the most recent bachelor's cohort reported.
  • pct_with_need_awarded_aid is not printed directly in H2 and was not computed; left null.
  • H2 need-fully-met percent computed as line h (206) divided by line d (3,062) for first-time full-time first-year students, = 6.7%.
  • GPA below 3.50 is the sum of the C11 bands below 3.50 (57.57); the complement of the printed bands gives 57.55, a rounding difference.
  • Cost uses first-year undergraduate figures from G1; tuition is split by in-state and out-of-state, so the single tuition field is null. Public institution; required fees and food/housing are shared across residency.
  • H1/H2 aid data are for the 2025-2026 estimated year, not 2024-25 final.
