Historical undergraduate admissions
Fall 2019 · first-time degree/certificate-seeking undergraduate applicants.
Reported enrolled first-time undergraduates: 286.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2019 | 2,705 | 2,378 | 286 | 87.9% | 12.0% |
| 2018 | 2,894 | 2,511 | 300 | 86.8% | 11.9% |
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 2019 → 2020 | 45% · R | 225 | 50% · R | 2 |
| Fall 2018 → 2019 | 63% · R | 247 | 0% · R | 3 |
| Fall 2017 → 2018 | 64% · R | 204 | 0% · R | 1 |
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.
