Fall Cohort - inicidates the academic semester in which the cohort was established (e.g.s Fall 2018, Fall 2019, etc.)
Cohort Size: the number of first-time, first-year bachelor degree-seeking students whose major was declared as PIEC
4-year grad rate (%) - the percentage of students in the cohort who graduated within 4 years and remained in the Bahcelor program
5-year grad rate (%) - the percentage of students in the cohort who graduated within 5 years and remained in the Bachelor program
6-year grad rate (%) - the percentage of students in the cohort who graduated within 6 years and remained in the Bachelor program

Note: The cohorts are all full-time, bachelor’s degree-seeking students enrolled in the IECE and/or the ELEM EDU programs including pre-IECE, pre-ELEM, and Pre-EDU, regardless of student class (e.g. Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, etc.). The graduation rate is based on the number of years it took a student to graduate from the specified cohort year in which their enrollment was captured. This method was used as there is no code to designate when a student goes from pre-interest to being formally accepted by the SOE via application and other required criteria.
