Notes

  • Graduate degree program classification is based on fewer than 50 degrees.
  • Undergraduate profile classification: the selectivity measure is just below the next higher category.
  • Undergraduate profile classification: due to a high proportion of transfer entrants, test score data (if present) may not be representative.
  • Basic classification: the number of doctoral degrees is within 5 of the Master's/Doctoral boundary

note: All-inclusive classifications are time-specific snapshots of institutional attributes and behavior based on data from 2008 to 2010. Institutions might be classified differently using a different timeframe.
