HEADCOUNT: This is the unduplicated headcount for the entire academic year, i.e., counting each individualstudent one time during the year. Headcount does not include Leave of Absence (LOA), but it does include Enrollment Maintenance Fee (EMF) status. Headcount does not include Continuing Education.
NOTE: The total annual unduplicated headcount may not equate to the sum of the headcounts inindividual programs because of double counting of students who move from one program to another during the same academic year.
FTE: Full Time Equivalent - Total credits divided by the minimum number of credits/full time load.For programs on the quarter system, this is 8 credits for graduate programs and 12 credits for undergraduate programs. Programs on the semester system are to convert semester credits to quarter credits, multiplying by 3/2, and then use the 8 or 12 divisors. The Fall Term's FTE will be reported as representative of the entire academic year.
Graduation Rate: This is a program-by-program metric. It is the number of students graduating within an individual program's graduation period divided by the total number of students who had entered the program at the start of that period.
Retention Rate: The number of students remaining in a program after 1 year and 2 years divided by the totalnumber of students who had entered the program at the start of those periods.
Conversion Rate: The number of applicants divided by the number of inquiries.
Acceptance Rate: The number of acceptances divided by the number of applicants.
Yield Rate: The number of those enrolled (matriculated) divided by the number of acceptances. |
