New Resource Analysis (RA) query The query is in the Restricted Outputs as an option under
Subsidy Process and requires the SUBSIDY PROCESS authorization, the same
as is necessary to view the Subsidy FTE. The description of the RA process
is on the WWW at
Improvements for unfinalized data Previously, when a term was unfinalized for an institution, that institution's data for that term was no longer available in relevant general purpose queries. We have now allowed data for terms which have been unfinalized to be included in general purpose queries. For each query that you run, you will receive in your results a list of institutions and unfinalized terms for year(s) and term(s) that were included in your query. In addition, we will indicate in the query results the institutions who have not yet finalized their data for the year(s) and term(s) included in your query. Finally, we now notate on the End-of-Term Status page which terms for which institutions are unfinalized. A date in red indicates that an institution has requested that data for a term that was once finalized be "unfinalized" due to more changes. The data for unfinalized terms are still available for the general purpose queries. Facilities Utilization Query in Production The long awaited Facilities Utilization Query is now in production under the "restricted queries" area on the HEI web page. You can use this query to display regular, scheduled use of facilities, as reported in the Course Section Schedule (CS) file by students enrolled in course sections that have been reported in the Course Enrollment (CN) file. The input parameters represent data from the Physical Facilities (PS), Area Inventory (AI), and Course Section Schedule (CS) files. We plan to enhance this query in the future to include data from the Other Use of Instructional Rooms (OR) file and irregular hours from the Course Section Schedule file. Cohort Tracking (CT) File now ready The Cohort Tracking (CT) File is now ready for your cohort submissions. The CT file can assist you with reporting graduation and transfer-out rates required by the IPEDS Graduation Rate Survey (GRS). The CT can also be used for other kinds of campus cohort studies and analyses. The detailed data submissions document is located on the web at http://regents.ohio.gov/hei/datasubdoc/enrollment/production/ctfile.html. The Cohort Tracking (CT) file contains a list of students reported in the IPEDS Graduation Rate Survey (GRS) for a given year. Information from this file is returned in a report located in the "restricted queries" area of the HEI web page. The report will display mobility (transfer-out) and graduation rates synonymous with the GRS broken down by race, sex, and the type of institution the student transferred to or graduated from. Please note that the Performance Report SubCommittee has recently decided that this file submission will be required by four year institutions as part of the Performance Report requested by Governor Taft. Reporting requirements for two year institutions will be determined in the near future by the Performance Report SubCommittee. All institutions will be informed of specific CT reporting requirements in a forthcoming letter from Robert Sheehan, Associate Vice Chancellor. |
