  • Cohort Year Adjustment: With the introduction of baccalaureate degree programs, the cohort year has been adjusted to align with IPEDS reporting requirements, which mandate tracking students for 150% of normal program completion time. This adjustment ensures appropriate tracking periods for both associate (3-year tracking) and baccalaureate (6-year tracking) degree-seeking students within the cohort.
  • Tracking Period: Students tracked for 150% of normal program time (3 years for associate degrees, 6 years for baccalaureate degrees).
  • Race/Ethnicity Categories: Based on federally defined IPEDS categories.
  • Financial Aid Categories: Based on aid received during first year of enrollment.
  • Data Privacy: Values marked with (*) represent fewer than 5 students.
