Report for the cohort of all full-time, first-time bachelor’s (or equivalent) degree-seeking undergraduate students who entered in Fall 2023 (or the preceding summer term).
The initial cohort may be adjusted for students who departed for the following reasons:
- Death
- Permanent Disability
- Service in the armed forces
- Foreign aid service of the federal government
- Official church missions
- No other adjustments to the initial cohort should be made.
For the cohort of all full-time bachelor’s (or equivalent) degree-seeking undergraduate students who entered your institution as first-year students in Fall 2023 (or the preceding summer term), what percentage was enrolled at your institution as of the date your institution calculates its official enrollment in Fall 2024.
Total students retained = Students from the Fall 2023 cohort who are still enrolled as of Fall 2024 + students from Fall 2023 cohort who completed their bachelor's program as of Fall 2024
(Students from the Fall 2023 cohort still enrolled as of Fall 2024 + Students from Fall 2023 cohort who completed their bachelor's program as of Fall 2024)/(Adjusted Fall 2023 cohort) *100
Note: The number of first-time students seeking a bachelor's degree (or equivalent) who attain a bachelor's degree (or equivalent) by their second fall term is expected to be zero or very small. In exceptional cases when a first-time student does satisfy all degree requirements including full credit completion (e.g., typically 120 credit hours) and is awarded a bachelor's degree (or equivalent) by their second fall term, they are to be considered "retained" for IPEDS Fall Enrollment reporting purposes.
