DEFINITIONS AND NOTES:
This student profile is based upon
data gathered about student
users of the lab who completed
the Student Satisfaction Survey
and provided valid “G”
numbers. All demographic and
enrollment data were derived
from the student academic
database using students’ “G”
numbers.
Retention %: Percentage of
course enrollments with a grade
of A, B, C, D, F, P, NP, I. (Only
excludes W’s.) Hence, an 80%
retention rate = a 20% “W” rate.
Success %: The percentage of
course enrollments with a grade
of A, B, C, or P.
Non-Success: The percentage
of course enrollments with a
grade of D, F, NP, I, or W.
* Day/Evening Course
Enrollments: 85.6% of all the
courses enrolled by student
respondents were day courses.
