First-time, first-year Profile

Provide percentages for ALL enrolled, degree-seeking, full-time and part-time, first-time, first-year students enrolled in Fall 2019, including students who began studies during summer, international students/nonresidents, and students admitted under special arrangements.

C9. Percent and number of first-time, first-year students enrolled in Fall 2022 who submitted national standardized (SAT/ACT) test scores. Include information for ALL enrolled, degree-seeking, first-time, first-year students who submitted test scores. Do not include partial test scores (e.g., mathematics scores but not critical reading for a category of students) or combine other standardized test results (such as TOEFL) in this item. Do not convert SAT scores to ACT scores and vice versa. If a student submitted multiple sets of scores for a single test, report this information according to how you use the data. For example: If you consider the highest scores from either submission, use the highest combination of scores (e.g., verbal from one submission, math from the other). If you average the scores, use the average to report the scores.

Do convert Old SAT scores to New SAT scores using the College Board's concordance tools and tables (sat.org/concordance).
