NCAA Divisions II and III Enrollment and Persistence Rates Report, 1997. Enrollment and Persistence Rates Data (1991-92 and 1995-96 Entering Classes). Undergraduate-Enrollment Data (Fall 1996).
National Collegiate Athletic Association, Overland Park, KS.
This publication presents both aggregate and individual reports of data submitted by National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division II and III institutions. A persistence rate is based on a comparison of the number of students who entered a college or university as first-time, full-time students in a given year and the number who re-enrolled as full-time students in the fall of a following year. The data are summarized by institution. Individual reports give persistence information about two groups of students: all full-time undergraduate students, and student-athletes who either received athletics aid from the college or university or were offered aid but could not qualify for it because of NCAA initial eligibility legislation. Each individual report gives persistence information about students and student-athletes entering as full-time students for the first time in the fall of either 1991 or 1995, and returning as full-time students in the fall of 1996. The persistence rate for the 1991 cohort also includes those students who received their baccalaureate degree by the end of the 1996 summer term. Each individual report provides information about student-athletes who received athletics aid in one or more of eight sports categories: football, men's basketball, baseball, men's track/cross country, men's other sports and mixed sports, women's basketball, women's track/cross country, and women's other sports. For each of these categories information on six self-reported racial or ethnic groups is included: American Indian or Alaska Native; Asian or Pacific Islander; Black; Hispanic; White; and Other. The total of all six groups combined is reported. (ND)
