The "Student" filter does not have any effect on the "Degrees Awarded" chart. All other filters will affect every chart.

Without filtering, retention and graduation rates displayed are not based on the official cohort. To view cohort retention and graduation rates (the rates used for official reporting) filter for Official GRS under the Student tab.

❉ Retention and graduation rates are not based on the official cohort so this will not match anything reported to external entities. You can look at New Freshman retention and graduation rates but this will include Full-time/Part-time and all degree seeking.

❉ The First Generation and Low Income fields are calculated based on FAFSA data. Typically, the longer a student is enrolled the more likely he/she is to have completed FAFSA information. Therefore, a decline in first generation or low income enrollment for recent years is often a result of the lack of FAFSA data rather than a true decrease in these student populations.

❉ The Low Income field is not from data submitted to CPE due to the delay from it only being reported yearly. This field is based on those receiving Pell grants during the aid year or prior.

❉ Graduation Rates are based on earning a degree at the level (Associate, Bachelors, Masters, etc.) a student is pursuing within the allotted time selected from the dropdown. The default is 6 years for all students.

❉ 2023-06-22: Moved "Include Program 2" selection to a drop down to allow programs 2 to be viewed independently.
