Notes & Data Sources:

The NHS cohorts used in this report represent first-time/full-time new entering freshmen as defined by
each campus. For Twin Cities and Morris, these definitions match those used for official IPEDS reporting
which exclude students who completed any college level coursework after graduating from high school. For
Duluth, the cohorts may include additional "non-IPEDS" students who completed between 1 and 19 college
level semester credits after high school. For Crookston, these low credit transfer students may also be
included, and students who did not declare they were seeking a bachelors degree as of their entry term
are excluded. Students who participated in the MN PSEO program are included. In addition, zero credit
remedial courses are used in determining full time status. Approximately 97% of all University defined
NHS students are included in this report.

Graduation status values represent cumulative bachelor's degrees received at the UM from
the Fall term of entry through the Summer term of the designated yearly interval. For example, if a student
entered in fall 2006 and received a bachelor's degree any time from fall 2006 through summer 2010, they would
be counted initially as a graduate in the "four years after entry" table and in all subsequent tables (once
a graduate, always a graduate). This window is controlled by the Grad/Retention Period prompt.

Enrollment status values represent enrollments as of the end of the 2nd week of the Fall term
immediately following the designated yearly interval. For example, if a student entered in Fall 2006 and had not
received a degree through summer 2010 and was enrolled for classes in Fall 2010, he or she would be counted
as enrolled in the "four years after entry" table. This actually means the student returned for the start of
their fifth year. This window is controlled by the Grad/Retention Period prompt.
