Notes on this filing
  • Applicant, admit and enrolled totals are for first-time, first-year degree-seeking students. Applied (16,750) and admitted (14,694) are summed from the gender rows because no total is printed in C1. Enrolled (1,229) is the sum of the four full-time and part-time men and women rows.
  • C2: waitlist 'accepting a place' count is blank, so waitlist_accepted_place is null. Offered (823) and admitted (361) are mapped by position.
  • C4/C8: test policy taken from the C8A checkbox (not required, considered if submitted). C8F clarification is blank. C8A is labelled for Fall 2025 admission.
  • C7: 'Writing' SAT row mapped to sat_erw (EBRW range), which is an assumption about the label.
  • C9 percentages of test-taking students and the C11 GPA bands are from the all-enrolled-students column. pct_below_3_50 is the sum of the 3.25-3.49, 3.00-3.24, 2.50-2.99, 2.0-2.49, 1.0-1.99 and below-1.0 bands. The C11 bands total 99.99% as printed.
  • B4-B21: the 4-year graduation rate is not printed (line D is 780 of 1,234 cohort students, about 63%, but that rate was not computed). The 6-year rate of 71% is the printed total for the Fall 2017 cohort.
  • H2: the percentage of students awarded need-based aid is not printed and was not computed. pct_need_fully_met = 104 / 772 = 13.5%, using first-time full-time freshmen (lines h and d).
  • H1/H2: the academic-year checkbox for H1 is marked for 2023-24, but the column header reads 2023-2024 and 2022-2023 Final, so the year is ambiguous.
  • G1: first-year column used for required fees ($505) and food and housing ($13,820). Undergraduate tuition is the same for all students ($50,410) and is placed in tuition. The cost table lists $230 required fees for all undergraduates.
