UNDERGRADUATE ADMISSIONS
A comparison of undergraduate admissions for fall semester 2000-01 and fall
semester 2001-02 reveals a .9 percent increase in first-year (freshman) students for the whole
university, although the percentage change varies widely by campus. This comparison is based on
the number
of admitted students as of September 1, 2000, and September 4, 2001, the conclusion
of the first week of classes for all campuses. This figure accurately represents admissions
activity for a fall semester.
At the time of the survey, the Bloomington and IUPUI campuses accounted for
nearly 80 percent of the first-year admissions and 64.7 percent of the transfer
admissions. These figures serve as the official admission statistics for the First Semester.
Figures from both years have been constructed using a new and more representative
methodology, recognizing the increasing population of high school students who begin
taking college courses in high school. Previously these students were coded as non-degree
seeking students, and when they arrived on campus after graduating from high school, they
were coded as returning students, excluding them from the cohort.
