[OK-AIR] Miscellaneous Questions

[Julie Sawyer]

Cindy:

Responses for NSU are in green below:

1.      When your institution deletes a program, how long do you allow for
teach-out? Do you treat option/major deletions any differently if the
program is still active?

Maximum of 3 years


2.      Have you come across the website College Factual (
https://www.collegefactual.com/)? What do you know of them and what is your
opinion?

This is the first time I have heard of it.


3.      For publications (web and/or paper), do you redact or adjust small
numbers? If so, what is your cutoff figure?

It depends on the variable, the purpose and the audience.  When we adjust
small numbers, our rule of thumb for minimum cell size is 10 for
undergraduate students and 5 for graduate students.


4.      How do you calculate graduation rates or time to completion for
students beginning in the fall term vs students beginning in the spring
term vs students beginning in the summer term?

We don't use spring starters in calculating graduate rates; summer starters
are included with fall if they are enrolled full-time in the fall term.
For time to completion, it often depends on the project as the definition
of time can vary (calendar days/years vs academic years vs all semesters
including summers vs "regular" semesters only counting fall and spring).


Thanks,
Julie
