Notes on this filing
  • C2: the waitlist policy is marked No and all waitlist counts are blank, so waitlist fields are null.
  • C21/C22: early decision and early action are marked No; applicant and admit counts are blank.
  • C8A: the checkbox is for applicants to Fall 2026, not the 2024-25 cycle. C8F clarification is blank. The policy is summarized from C8A, C8D and C8G.
  • C8G placement tests are checked for SAT, ACT, AP, CLEP and institutional exam.
  • C9: SAT composite percentile fields are blank; only SAT ERW and Math are reported. SAT Math score distribution sums to 101% as printed (rounding).
  • C9: the ACT composite is 18/20/24 and matches the printed ACT Composite row.
  • B4-B11: the most recent bachelor's cohort is Fall 2018. The 6-year rate of 51% is printed. The 4-year rate is not printed, so it is null, even though line D (304 of 816) is available.
  • B22: the retention rate of 71% is printed.
  • H2: the aid percentages use the first-time, full-time first-year column. pct_need_fully_met = 78 / 914 (line d, awarded any financial aid) = 8.5%. pct_with_need_awarded_aid is not printed, so it is null.
  • H2: the row label for K (avg_need_based_grant, $25,577) is cut off in the PDF; mapped by position and may be the average need-based scholarship/grant.
  • G1: a single private tuition of $36,450 is used; in-state and out-of-state are null. Room and board is the on-campus food and housing figure of $15,290.
  • Dates: the first-time, first-year 'enrolled' total (1,016) matches the residency table. The C2 waitlist 'Number accepting' rows are blank.
