Methodology & Notes

• Individual Student and Cohort analyses compare Scholarship Only and CPL Only.
• The two-option comparison keeps the strategic decision clear.
• CPL reduces credits billed by the average CPL award and uses the CPL-adjusted attrition rate in the cohort analysis.
• Institutional Net Revenue = total tuition + total fees − total scholarship − total acquisition cost.
• Acquisition cost is applied once at entry. Graduates are students who persist to the final required term.
