3. FTFTF Enrollment 2002-2011

4. FTFTF breakdown by EOP, Honors, Regular for 2002-2011 Note: FTFTF holding EOP and Honors statuses simultaneously are counted as EOP. Transfers are first-time full-time degree-seeking undergraduate transfers of all class levels.

5. Admission guidelines: FTFTF Strong academic record: top 25% preferred, 4 years of math including pre-Calc and 2 lab sciences (for STEM majors); grades of B or better recommended SAT Math (M) + Critical Reading (CR) composite = 1050 or higher; 550 or better in Math preferred ACT composite = 22 or higher Flexibility allowed for non-STEM majors

6. NJIT Admissions Selectivity: Summary Entering student SAT scores are generally unchanged in 10 years. A slight decrease for EOP students is offset by a slight increase for Honors students. Entering student HS Rank is slightly improved, with a slight decrease for EOP students more than offset by increases for Honors and Regular students

7. NJIT Transfer Performance: Summary Overall, transfer students outperform native students in graduation rates. Transfer student 4 year graduate rates are slightly better than native student 6 year graduation rates. Six year graduation rates for transfer students are sometimes approaching Honors student graduation rates.

8. Notes to SAT scores SAT scores at NJIT have been consistently calculated. All FTFTF students are included with no exceptions for the category of ‘special admits.’ Other schools in NJ use the category of special admits. ETS research indicates that SAT differences of less than 50 points are not statistically significant. At NJIT SAT-Verbal is not a significant positive predictor of performance. (In some cohorts it is a negative predictor of graduation.)

11. Notes to HS Rank HS Rank is an excellent indicator of university performance but its utility depends somewhat on the quality of the high school. To the extent it can be evaluated, the quality of high schools from which NJIT students are recruited has almost certainly improved.
