Scope and Contents

From the Series:

The registration statistics series is housed in three boxes and is arranged chronologically by academic year. (One academic year = fall semester, spring semester and summer session.) However, there are many statistics in this series that compare registration across a number of years. These statistics are filed in the year in which they were compiled. This series contains a wide variety of data about enrollment and student performance. Although statistics are available from 1905, the amount of data collected about students increases steadily, particularly in the 1950s. Aggregated statistics about the students are most common in this series, but some information on individual students can be found. Most academic years contain statistics on the number of applications, admitted students, and enrolled students broken down by class, sex, month, department, or part-time, day, or evening students. Other common statistics include: tuition charges, student withdrawals or eliminations, grades, faculty, number of graduates, high schools attended by freshmen, comparisons to other technical schools, geographic distribution of students. This series also contains miscellaneous newspaper articles, reports, and correspondence, which are usually connected with particular statistics gathered by the Office.
