1.   Last Name

 

  All information is to be entered using mixed case (standard combination of upper and lower case letters). Enter the legal spelling and format of the last name as supplied by the person.

  Spaces are permitted if the name would be significantly changed if spaces were removed.

  Hyphens may be used to separate double last names (sometimes used in ethnic names or by persons who wish to utilize their maiden and married names). However, if there are two last names that are not hyphenated (e.g. Monica Lou Creton Quinton), Monica would be input at the first name, Lou would be input as the middle name and Creton Quinton would be input as the last name.

Category

Description

1

First-Time Freshman

An entering freshman who has never attended any college (or other postsecondary institution). Includes students enrolled in the fall term who attended college for the first time in the prior summer term. Also includes students who entered with advanced standing (college credits earned before graduation from high school).

3

Other Student

Any student who fails to fit into any of the other admission status categories.

4

Transfer Student

A student who enrolls at an institution for the first time who has previously attended another postsecondary institution. Students classified as visiting students or First-time Freshman should be excluded. See the exception to this definition in the definition for First-Time Freshman above.

5

Continuing Student

 

 

 

 

 

Those students enrolled in a particular term, who was also enrolled in the previous regular term or summer term and who does not qualify as first-time freshman or transfer students. A regular term is defined as a fall or spring semester and a fall, winter or spring quarter.

6

Readmitted Students

Those students enrolled for a particular term that were previously enrolled at your institution but were not enrolled under the conditions specified above the continuing students.

X

Visiting Student

A student who is enrolled in one or more courses at, or being taught by, your institution, but whose home campus is another institution. Includes all students who are visiting your campuses (e.g. cross-registered, cross-enrolled, dual-enrolled, summer only, etc.) by formal or informal inter-institutional cooperative programs or agreements.

If a student is enrolled in course work on both campuses, both institutions, irrespective of the conditions of the programs or agreements, should report these students.

 

For example: A student that enrolled in a degree program at Institution A and cross-enrolled in a course at (or being taught by) Institution B would be reported as Admissions Status “1”, “2”, “3”, etc, at Institution A, and as Admissions Status “X” as Institution B.

 

If a student is enrolled in course work as a visiting student only and not enrolled on the home

campus, the campus he/she is visiting should report the student.

 

For example: A student enrolled in a degree program at Institution A does not enroll at Institution A for the summer semester, but enrolls at Institution B as a visiting student. Institution B would report that student as Admissions Status “X”.
