Note 1: The number of enrollments is calculated by counting the students enrolled between the start point and the end point. For instance, if the time period is between fall 2018 and summer 2023, the start point is fall 2018, and the end point is summer 2023. The number of graduates is calculated by counting the students who graduated between the start and end points. The number of students retained is calculated by counting those who were still enrolled one semester after the end point. The rest are considered to have dropped out.

Note 2: The SJD program is currently stopped out.
