Notes on this filing

Applicant, admit and enrollee totals were summed from the gender/unknown rows in C1 (no total printed); they match the C2 residency totals.
C2: waitlist offered, accepted and admitted counts are blank in the filing (residency figures printed beside the waitlist block belong to the applicant/admit/enrollee tables, not the waitlist).
C2: waitlist is used (policy Yes) but waitlist ranking/release fields are answered No.
C8F: consistent with C8A; writing scores are academic factors if submitted.
C9: first-time first-year percent and number submitting SAT 8.20% (606) and ACT 33.32% (2463).
C10: class rank reported as top tenth 36.33%, top quarter 69.70%, top half 95.56%, bottom half 4.44%, bottom quarter 0.11%; not in schema fields.
C11 and C12: GPA bands, average GPA and percent submitting GPA are blank; the printed 0.00 totals were not treated as data.
B4-B11 graduation: the 6-year rate 85.29 is from the Fall 2018 cohort (the most recent in the filing). The 4-year rate is not printed, so it is null.
G1 header says 2024-25 costs, while the G1 instruction and the advance-date note refer to 2025-26 costs; the figures are used as printed.
G1: separate in-district/in-state and out-of-state tuition printed, so the single tuition field is null. Room and board uses the on-campus food and housing figure.
H2: pct_with_need_awarded_aid is not printed as a rate and was not computed, so it is null.
H2: pct_need_fully_met = line h (568) / line d (3649) = 15.6. The instruction defines line d as need-based aid recipients, but the printed line d is 'any financial aid'; the printed line d was used.
H1 figures are 2024-25 estimated, not final.
