(a) Percentages are of those known, e.g., Top Quarter Fall 1986 = 51/(314 - 78).
(b) The Enhanced ACT was first administered in October 1989.A new concordance table was used to convert SAT to equivalent ACT scores for Fall 1990, one which produces substantially higher ACT equivalents than the one previously in use.
(c) Beginning with 1994, Student Right to Know cohorts are used to represent new freshmen rather than only CBM001 designation.
(d) Beginning with Fall 1996, ""Recentered"" SAT scores are in use.
(e) Beginning 1997, all full-time FTTIC=1 are included.
