Notes
- Most recent headcount includes students enrolled in the Fall Semester as of 10/15/12
- Definition for undergraduate student FTE is: (Sum of part-time
students/12) + (Sum of full time students)
Definition for graduate student FTE is: (Sum of part-time students/9) + (Sum of full time students) - Includes more than one degree for some students. In 2011-2012 the University began awarding BS degrees to after their fourth year to students who are enrolled in 5 and 6 year programs. This is the reason for the significant increase in degrees awarded as of 2011-2012.
- Definition for Faculty FTE is: (Sum of clock hours of part-time
faculty/12) + (sum of full time faculty)
- Student/Faculty ratio = number of undergraduate students/faculty FTE. Off-campus faculty is excluded from this count.

- Doctoral Universities I and II
- Schools of Engineering and Technology
- Other Separate Health Profession Schools
