Notes on this filing
  • Admissions totals were computed by summing C1 men and women columns (no total printed): applied 1009+2034=3043, admitted 985+2003=2988, enrolled 215+342=557.
  • C1 vs. residency table (C1 applicant/admit/enrolled breakdown): applied 3018, admitted 2960, enrolled 559. These differ from the computed C1 sums and were not reconciled.
  • C1 full-time enrollee counts (men 202, women 329) differ slightly from B1 first-time first-year full-time counts (men 203, women 330).
  • C1 applicant/admit/enrolled rows for another gender and unknown gender were blank; the detail rows need not sum to totals per the form.
  • C8A: Yes is marked, but no SAT/ACT policy checkboxes are shown; C8F states 'Not required for admission, but considered for some', which was used for the policy summary. C8 percent submitting is printed as 0 for both SAT and ACT, and no percentile scores are reported; this looks like a non-reporting value.
  • Waitlist (C2): the institution answered No to having a waitlist policy; all waitlist counts are blank and set to null.
  • Early decision and early action (C21, C22): both answered No.
  • C12 average GPA is 3.29 (3.291793 in the underlying field). C11 bands sum to 101% (5+15+16+18+19+24+4), not 100%. The pct_below_3_50 value of 65 is the sum of the 3.25-3.49, 3.00-3.24, 2.50-2.99 and 2.0-2.49 bands.
  • Graduation: 6-year rate of 47 comes from the printed Fall 2018 cohort total rate (0.47). The 4-year rate is not printed; only counts are given (227 of 781 adjusted cohort), so grad_rate_4yr is null and was not computed.
  • Retention rate 73 is from B22 (Fall 2023 cohort to Fall 2024).
  • Cost: tuition differs by residency (in-district/in-state $9,450; out-of-state $30,105), so the single tuition field is null. Room and board is food and housing on-campus ($12,528). Required fees $2,064. Tuition and fees do not vary by year or program.
  • Aid (H2) is entirely blank in the filing, and H1 totals show $0.00. All aid fields are null.
  • H2 numbers and the need-fully-met percentage could not be computed because H2 is blank.
