Footnotes

1 The "knowledge rate" indicates the percentage of the graduating class for whom we have placement data.

2 The overall success rate identifies the total percentage of alumni who are employed, engaged in military service, engaged in a volunteer/service program, or who are continuing education. Consistent with the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) First Destination guidelines, the success rate calculation excludes alumni who are not seeking employment or education from the denominator. However, alumni who are not seeking employment or education are included when calculating the individual primary activities (e.g., percent employed, percent continuing education).

3 Results marked "---" are not available because the response size was too small to be identified in reporting (n < 10).

4 Salary data reported by NACE are based solely on alumni whose primary activity is classified as "Standard Employment FT." This field should be used for NACE comparisons. Alumni who are employed in other full-time positions (e.g., entrepreneur FT, faculty FT) are excluded from NACE salary reporting.

5 Because participants were allowed to select more than one option, responses may total more than 100%.
