Enrollment Definitions
  • Student enrollment is described in terms of both headcount and FTE (Full-time Equivalence)
  • Student headcount is the count of individuals registered as of the census date.
  • Student FTE is calculated using two different methods:
Method 1:
  1. Undergraduate FTE = Full-Time headcount + (Part-Time Credit Hours/15)
  2. Graduate FTE = Full-Time headcount + (Part-Time Credit Hours/10)
Method 2: Undergraduate and Graduate FTE = Full-Time headcount + (1/3 Part-Time headcount)
  • Full-time Status – A student is classified as full-time if they maintain at least 12 undergraduate credits or 9 graduate credits.
