G. Annual Expenses
Provide 2006-2007 academic year costs for the following categories that are applicable to your
institution.
Undergraduate full-time tuition, required fees, room and board List the typical tuition, required fees,
and room and board for a full-time undergraduate student for the FULL 2006-2007 academic year (30
semester or 45 quarter hours for institutions that derive annual tuition by multiplying credit hour cost by
number of credits). A full academic year refers to the period of time generally extending from September
to June; usually equated to two semesters, two trimesters, three quarters, or the period covered by a four-
one-four plan. Room and board is defined as double occupancy and 19 meals per week or the maximum
meal plan. Required fees include only charges that all full-time students must pay that are not included in
tuition (e.g., registration, health, or activity fees.) Do not include optional fees (e.g., parking, laboratory
use).
Comprehensive tuition and room and board fee (if your
college cannot provide separate tuition and room and
board fees):
Other: Required fees for undergraduates include the Student Activity fee and Regional Transit Authority
pass. First-year students also pay a $350 matriculation fee.
Number of credits per term a student can take for the
stated full-time tuition
Do tuition and fees vary by year of study (e.g., sophomore,
junior, senior)?

Aid that is non-need-based but that was used to meet need should be reported in the need-based

I. Instructional Faculty and Class Size
The following definition of instructional faculty is used by the American Association of University Professors
(AAUP) in its annual Faculty Compensation Survey. Instructional Faculty is defined as those members of
the instructional-research staff whose major regular assignment is instruction, including those with released
time for research. Use the chart below to determine inclusions and exclusions:
Full-time instructional faculty: Faculty employed on a full-time basis for instruction (including those with
released time for research).
Part-time instructional faculty: Adjuncts and other instructors being paid solely for part-time classroom
instruction. Also includes full-time faculty teaching less than two semesters, three quarters, two trimesters,
or two four-month sessions. Employees who are not considered full-time instructional faculty but who teach
one or more non-clinical credit courses may be counted as part-time faculty.
Minority faculty: Includes faculty who designate themselves as black, non-Hispanic; American Indian or
Alaska Native; Asian or Pacific Islander; or Hispanic.
Doctorate: Includes such degrees as Doctor of Philosophy, Doctor of Education, Doctor of Juridical
Science, and Doctor of Public Health in any field such as arts, sciences, education, engineering, business,
and public administration.
First-professional: Includes the fields of dentistry (DDS or DMD), medicine (MD), optometry (OD),
osteopathic medicine (DO), pharmacy (DPharm or BPharm), podiatric medicine (DPM), veterinary medicine
(DVM), chiropractic (DC or DCM), law (JD) and theological professions (MDiv, MHL).

instructional faculty in preclinical and clinical medicine,
faculty who are not paid (e.g., those who donate their
services or are in the military), or research-only faculty,

students, librarian, registrar, coach, and the like, even

Report the Fall 2005 ratio of full-time equivalent students (full-time plus 1/3 part time) to full-time equivalent
instructional faculty (full time plus 1/3 part time). In the ratio calculations, exclude both faculty and students
in stand-alone graduate or professional programs such as medicine, law, veterinary, dentistry, social work,
business, or public health in which faculty teach virtually only graduate level students. Do not count
undergraduate or graduate student teaching assistants as faculty.

Undergraduate Class Size (provide numbers)
Class Sections: A class section is an organized course offered for credit, identified by discipline and
number, meeting at a stated time or times in a classroom or similar setting, and not a subsection such as a
laboratory or discussion session. Undergraduate class sections are defined as any sections in which at
least one degree-seeking undergraduate student is enrolled for credit. Exclude distance learning classes
and noncredit classes and individual instruction such as dissertation or thesis research, music instruction,
or one-to-one readings. Exclude students in independent study, co-operative programs, internships, foreign
language taped tutor sessions, practicums, and all students in one-on-one classes. Each class section
should be counted only once and should not be duplicated because of course catalog cross-listings.
CLASS
SECTIONS
Using the above definitions, please report for each of the following class-size intervals the number of class
sections and class subsections offered in Fall 2005. For example, a lecture class with 800 students who
met at another time in 40 separate labs with 20 students should be counted once in the “100+” column in
the class section column and 40 times under the “20-29” column of the class subsections table.
Class Subsections: A class subsection includes any subsection of a course, such as laboratory,
recitation, and discussion subsections that are supplementary in nature and are scheduled to meet
separately from the lecture portion of the course. Undergraduate subsections are defined as any
subsections of courses in which degree-seeking undergraduate students enrolled for credit. As above,
exclude noncredit classes and individual instruction such as dissertation or thesis research, music
instruction, or one-to-one readings. Each class subsection should be counted only once and should not be
duplicated because of cross-listings.
In the table below, please use the following definitions to report information about the size of classes and
class sections offered in the Fall 2005 term.

J. Degrees Conferred
For each of the following discipline areas, provide the percentage of diplomas/certificates, associate, and
bachelor degrees awarded. To determine the percentage, use majors, not headcount (e.g., students with
one degree but a double major will be represented twice). Calculate the percentage from your
institution's IPEDS Completions by using the sum of first and second majors for each CIP code as the
numerator and the sum of the Grand Total by First Major and the Grand Total by Second Major as the
denominator. (If you prefer, you can compute the percentages using first majors only.)
