Graduation rate (4-yr on-time · first-time, full-time)
Of first-time, full-time freshmen, the share who earn a bachelor's within four years (100% of normal time) – the 'on-time' rate. It usually runs below the six-year rate, because many students take a fifth or sixth year.

The 'enrollment cliff' is the post-2008 birth decline reaching college age; the U.S. total is projected to fall about 13% over this window. A college recruits from many states, so its home-state projection is an indicative directional signal of feeder-market pressure, not a forecast of that institution's own enrollment.

Compound annual growth rate of undergraduate enrollment over the years the tool tracks (College Scorecard, roughly 2016-2024). Positive means the school is growing; negative means it is shrinking, the leading indicator of demand stress ahead of the demographic cliff. Where the reported count jumps by a merger or a campus consolidation brought under one institution, only the years after that jump are measured, and where too little history follows it no rate is shown. A sharp fall is measured in full: a shrinking count is the signal this metric exists to carry, not an artifact to be cut away. No rate is shown where the enrolment never reaches 25 in the measured window: on a series that small one student is a double-digit annual rate, and a percentile computed from it would rank noise. Banded against the school's peer group. The window shown is the one this school's own figure was measured over: it is shorter where the series starts late, ends early, or is cut at a reporting change, so peers are not all measured over identical years.

Of every 100 students graduating from high school in this institution's own state, how many enroll here as first-time undergraduates. It sizes the school's local market penetration, and it is the number that turns the demographic cliff into an enrollment figure: a state projected to lose 12% of its graduating class costs a school roughly 12% of whatever this share represents. Shown as context rather than scored: a high share means strong local pull and concentrated exposure to one state's pipeline, while a low share can mean weak local demand or a deliberately national recruiting strategy, and the data cannot tell those apart. First-time enrollment by home state is IPEDS residence and migration; the graduating-class size is the WICHE projection, so the two sides carry different dates and the card shows both. Not shown for schools with fewer than 20 first-time students from their own state. Two collections and two clocks: the students are counted in an IPEDS residence and migration collection, and the graduating class they are a share of is a WICHE projection for the class of 2025. Read it as the scale of the school's local market position, not as a figure accurate to the student.

For every undergraduate enrolled here, how many are enrolled at directly competing institutions (same Carnegie classification and control) within roughly 100 miles. It is the weight behind the competitor count on the neighbouring card: three tiny colleges nearby and one 40,000-student public are the same number of competitors and a completely different market. A value of 5x means the surrounding same-type market is five times this school's size, so a small shift in where those students choose to go moves this school's class far more than it moves theirs. Straight-line distance from campus coordinates, same 100-mile catchment as the competitor count. Banded against the school's peer group.

The number of consecutive years, ending with the most recent one, in which this school's undergraduate headcount fell. Zero means the latest year was flat or up. A single down year is ordinary; three or more in a row is the pattern that precedes program cuts and closures, and it is visible in the federal data years before it becomes public. A fall smaller than 2% counts as flat, because year-to-year reporting noise at that scale would otherwise manufacture streaks. Measured on the same window as enrollment momentum: where a merger or consolidation makes the earlier years a different institution, only the years after it are counted. Banded against the school's peer group. Lower is better.
