Compare reported admission years

These first-time undergraduate populations are separate reporting periods. Admission rate is admitted ÷ applicants; enrollment yield is enrolled ÷ admitted. Neither percentage is an individual admission probability.

Fall year	Applicants	Admitted	Enrolled	Admission rate	Enrollment yield
2020	156	152	39	97.4%	25.7%
2019	42	38	31	90.5%	81.6%

Calculated as admitted ÷ applicants. This institution-wide historical figure is not a personal admission probability, international-student rate, transfer rate or program-specific rate. Open-admission institutions may not report this survey.

Published first-year retention

Connected EF part-D observations concern prior-fall first-time degree/certificate-seeking cohorts assessed a year later. NCES describes persistence or completion; four-year institutions' cohorts are bachelor-seeking. Entry study status remains the grouping even if a student later changes between full- and part-time.

Entry cohort → assessment	Full-time source rate	Adjusted full-time cohort	Part-time source rate	Adjusted part-time cohort
Fall 2020 → 2021	92% · R	39	Not reported · A	Not reported
Fall 2019 → 2020	65% · R	31	Not reported · A	0
Fall 2018 → 2019	71% · R	28	Not reported · A	Not reported
Fall 2017 → 2018	55% · R	38	58% · R	24

Percentages are retained from the source rather than recalculated. R means reported; P means carried forward. Other source flags remain in the evidence. Missing rates remain unavailable and a published 0% remains zero. These are institution-level historical observations, not programme graduation rates, current service-quality rankings or individual predictions.
