applications/forms, such as the FAFSA.
Aggregate dollar amount borrowed through any loan program (federal, state, subsidized, unsubsidized,
private, etc.; excluding parent loans) while the student was enrolled at an institution. Student loans co-signed by a parent
are assumed to be the responsibility of the student and be included.
Endowed scholarships, annual gis and tuition funded grants for which the
institution determines the recipient.
As determined by your institution using the federal methodology and/or your institution's own standards.
College-funded or college-administered award from institutional, state, federal, or other sources for which
a student must have financial need to qualify. This includes both institutional and non-institutional student aid (grants,
jobs, and loans).
Scholarships and grants from institutional, state, federal, or other sources for which
a student must have financial need to qualify.
Loans and jobs from institutional, state, federal, or other sources for which a student must

Scholarships and grants, gis, or merit-based aid from institutional, state,
federal, or other sources (including unrestricted funds or gis and endowment income) awarded solely on the basis of
academic achievement, merit, or any other non-need-based reason. When reporting questions H1 and H2, non-need-based
aid that is used to meet need should be counted as need-based aid.
1. Non-need institutional grants 6. Non-need outside grants
2. Non-need tuition waivers 7. Non-need student loans
3. Non-need athletic awards 8. Non-need parent loans
4. Non-need federal grants

to the annual cost of education, less any financial aid received.
Scholarships and grants received from outside (private) sources that students bring

has no role in determining the recipient or the dollar amount awarded.
Federal and state work study aid, and any employment packaged by your institution in
financial aid awards.
Enter total dollar amounts to enrolled full-time and less than full-time degree-seeking undergraduates
in the following categories.
• If the data being reported are final figures for the 2021-2022 academic year (see the next item below),
use the 2021-2022 academic year's CDS Question B1 cohort.
• Include aid awarded to international students (i.e., those not qualifying for federal aid).
• Aid that is non-need-based but that was used to meet need should be reported in the need-based aid
column.

as those members of the instructional-research staff whose major regular assignment is instruction, including those with
released time for research. Use the chart below to determine inclusions and exclusions:
Instructional faculty in preclinical and clinical medicine, faculty who are not paid (e.g., those
who donate their services or are in the military), or research-only faculty, post-doctoral
fellows, or pre-doctoral fellows

Adjuncts and other instructors being paid solely for part-time classroom instruction. Also
includes full-time faculty teaching less than two semesters, three quarters, two trimesters, or two four-month sessions.
Employees who are not considered full-time instruction faculty but who teach one or more non-clinical credit courses may
be counted as part-time faculty.

Asian, Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander, or Hispanic.

Report the Fall 2022 ratio of full-time equivalent students (full-time plus 1/3 part time) to full-time equivalent instructional

teach virtually only graduate level students.
• Do not count undergraduate or graduate student teaching assistants as faculty.
Fall 2022 Student to Faculty ratio 6 to 1 (based on 7,857 students
and 1,288 faculty).
In the table below, please use the following definitions to report information about the size of classes and class sections
offered in the Fall 2022 term.
A class section is an organized course offered for credit, identified by discipline and number, meeting at a
stated time or times in a classroom or similar setting, and not a subsection such as a laboratory or discussion session.
Undergraduate class sections are defined as any sections in which at least one degree-seeking undergraduate student is
enrolled for credit. Exclude distance learning classes and noncredit classes and individual instruction such as dissertation or
thesis research, music instruction, or one-to-one readings. Exclude students in independent study, co-operative programs,
internships, foreign language taped tutor sessions, practicums, and all students in one-on-one classes. Each class section
should be counted only once and should not be duplicated because of course catalog cross-listings.
A class subsection includes any subsection of a course, such as laboratory, recitation, and discussion
subsections that are supplementary in nature and are scheduled to meet separately from the lecture portion of the course.
Undergraduate subsections are defined as any subsections of courses in which degree-seeking undergraduate students
enrolled for credit. As above, exclude noncredit classes and individual instruction such as dissertation or thesis research,
music instruction, or one-to-one readings. Each class subsection should be counted only once and should not be duplicated
because of cross-listings.
Using the above definitions, please report for each of the following class-size intervals the number of and
offered in Fall 2022. For example, a lecture class with 800 students who met at another time in 40 separate
labs with 20 students should be counted once in the “100+” column in the class section column and 40 times under the
“20-29” column of the class subsections table.

each CIP code as the numerator and the sum of the Grand Total by 1st Majors and the Grand Total by 2nd major as the denominator.
