Note:  In fall 2004, class level was derived from data in ISIS. Starting in fall 2005, class level was derived in BANNER, but due to the switch from accepting block transfer credit (as was the case in ISIS) to a course articulation process, all credit hours previously taken by a student currently are included in the class level calculation, not just those that will be used toward a UIS degree

Source:  Office of Admissions 10th day reports.
Note:  Non-degree-seeking students are included. The Office of Admissions considers a beginning freshman to be someone who has graduated from high school but completed fewer than 12 semester hours of transferable college classroom credit by the desired term of entry, whereas a transfer student is an applicant who has completed a minimum of 12 semester hours of transferable college classroom credit by the desired term of entry. These definitions differ slightly from that of IPEDS.
