FTES. For Resident Credit, Non-Credit and Non-Resident Credit detail
see the Excel spreadsheet below.
Note: Before 1990/91, FTES are derived by multiplying ADA figures by the average percentage FTES was of ADA during four years of overlap reporting (1987/88 through 1990/91). See the Excel spreadsheet version of this table These tables and chart cover the measure that is currently used to determine apportionment of funding by the State for student hours of enrollment. Up to 1990-91, the measure used was Average Daily Attendance (ADA), which has been replaced by FTES (Full -Time Equivalent Student) with the introduction of program-based funding. Both are computed by a formula that divides the total hours of class attendance over an academic year by 525, a number representing 15 hours per week of class attendance by one student over two standard semesters. In the table, ADA has been converted to FTES to better show trends in the apportionment measure. The currently used FTES measure is obtained by three slight variations of the same calculation. For full semester classes, enrollment at census date is multiplied by 17.5, which is the number of weeks of instruction over a full semester; the product is divided by 525. For short term classes with regularly scheduled meeting times, which are labeled Daily Student Contact Hour (DSCH) classes, the length of the class in weeks is substituted for the 17.5 factor. Classes designated as Positive Attendance have one or more of the following characteristics: not meeting at regular hours; operating on an open entry-exit basis; apprenticeship; or non-credit. For these classes, the total hours of attendance for the term are tallied and divided by 525. The previously used ADA measure was calculated in the same way, except that the average of first and second census was used for full semester enrollment, and was then multiplied by .911, an "attrition factor", which is an estimate of the percentage actual attendance is of active enrollment. After these calculations the product was divided by 525. Of course, the resulting ADA figures were lower than the corresponding FTES, as shown in the overlapping years in the chart. |
