Annual Enrollment Report and Service Impact by Campus Academic Year 2007-2008 October 2008 The Metropolitan Community College – Kansas City Office of Research and Planning ANNUAL ENROLLMENT REPORT 2007-2008 The annual enrollment report summarizes the various credit hour and student headcount data that has been distributed throughout the academic year by the Office of Research, Evaluation and Assessment. This report compares current data to data from the previous academic years. These comparisons will show the short-term and long-term growth throughout the Metropolitan Community College. The sources used for this report are made available with each table. The numbers used in these tables correlate to figures used for reporting to the Missouri Department of Higher Education (DHE) and the National Center of Educational Statistics (NCES) under the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS). Although not audited, these figures serve as official enrollment numbers for the 2007-2008 academic year. Campus data is reported by campus of attendance. Prior to fall 2001, the data source used the mainframe Legacy system. MetroSoft replaced the Legacy system in fall 2001 and has changed certain processes and allowed for additional data elements to be analyzed. The “campus of record” criterion is obsolete and the campus is determined by the location where the student takes the class, or in the case of distance education courses, by which campus hosts the class. The headcount at the district level is unduplicated; however, within the campus, a student may be counted more than once if attending multiple campuses.
