Frequently Asked Questions
Unless otherwise specified, the FAQ information is based on the data used for official federal reporting (October 15 snapshot for student enrollment information; November 1 for faculty and staff information). Because different snapshot dates (including 15th day of the semester, October 15th, November 1 for employee information, and end of term) are used for different reporting purposes, data found elsewhere on the OIR webpage, including the Fact Book, may not be identical to the FAQ information. |
