21. Let’s Take a Look at the Excel Form…

22. 22 APR: Block A A1: How many students do we have in the beginning of the project year? A2: Where are these students at the end?

23. CAMP: Knowledge Check 23 Case Scenario #1 Project A is funded to serve 50 students per year. The Project recruited 46 new participants during the 12-13 budget period (reporting period). 6 students from last year returned to continue in this budget period. These 6 returning students were reported as persisters in previous budget year APR. Additionally, 2 students, who were reported as withdrawal in previous budget year APR, have also returned to this budget period. What are the breakdowns for the beginning of reporting period (Block A1 ) ?  Funded to be served: 50  Actually served: 54  New Participants: 46 + 2 (=48)  Returning Participants: 6 (= Persisters of the previous reporting period/budget period)

24. CAMP: Knowledge Check Case Scenario #2 From the previous question, we observe that Project A is serving 54 students during the 12-13 budget period (reporting period). Additional facts… 45 students are considered “completers” by June 30 (end of budget period) because they qualify under the definition. Project A anticipates that students who did not qualify as “completers” (54 – 45=9) will all register again for the next budget period (13-14). However, only 5 students have officially registered by APR submission deadline (12/09/2013) What are the breakdowns for the end of reporting period (Block A2 ) ?  Completer: 45  Persister: 5  Withdrawal: 4 (did not officially register or stopped coming to school) 24 54 – 45 – 5 = 4 Definition of Completer Min 24 credits (semester) or 36 credits (quarter) or higher as defined by the university

25. 25 APR: Block A A3: How many CAMP completers continued post secondary education (i.e., did not drop out after first year)?
