Notes on this filing
  • Form is labeled CDS 2024-2025, but admissions data are Fall 2025 and cost data are 2026-27; year set to 2025-26.
  • C1/enrollees: the enrolled counts by sex (males 488, females 677, unknown 0; total 1,165) do not match the enrollee-by-status rows (FT+PT males 505, females 692; total 1,197). The 1,197 total is used because it matches the residency table and B1.
  • C2: no waitlist policy (answered No); waitlist counts left blank.
  • C8A/C8F: C8A answers yes and C8F is blank, so the policy phrase is drawn from the checkboxes; SAT, ACT and SAT-only are all marked 'not required, considered if submitted'.
  • C9: submitting percentages (46% SAT, 31% ACT) sum to 77%, which is consistent with the filing but not a complete breakdown of the cohort.
  • C11: GPA bands sum to 99% (15+25+22+37), not 100%; pct_below_3_50 is the sum of the 3.25-3.49, 3.00-3.24, 2.50-2.99, 2.00-2.49, 1.00-1.99 and below-1.0 bands (17+12+7+1+0+0).
  • B4-B11: six-year graduation rate taken from the Fall 2019 bachelor's cohort (line H = 0.493456505). A four-year rate is not printed (line D gives 441 of 1,299 completers within four years), so grad_rate_4yr is null.
  • H2: pct_need_fully_met = 12 / 771 = 1.6% (first-time full-time first-year column, lines h and d). avg_need_based_package uses line J, which is the average package for all aid recipients in line d, not need-based only.
  • H2: pct_with_need_awarded_aid is not printed as a rate, so it is left null.
  • G1: public institution; in-district and out-of-district tuition are both $6,672, so tuition_in_state is set to $6,672. Room and board uses food and housing ($11,101).
