Average class fill rate has dropped 9%. This largely due to a Full-time instructor has retired and the instructor that usually runs a full cohort of first term was moved to second term. Classes are filling with wait lists every semester. Hiring new faculty will address this issue.
The withdrawal rate of students is 5%. This represents a high number based on many first term students are making decisions on their career
Annual C-pass rate has increased to 81% which is 3% higher than last cycle.
Annual number of graduates is up 2 to 67. This displays that with losing a full time instructor and moving an instructor to second term, the quality of teaching has remained if not risen. |
