It consists of: o Snapshots: information about a particular point in time or an overview of one year o Trends: information that shows multiple years Please note that there are several ways that students are counted in this report: o Fall Census Snapshot: a headcount early in the Fall semester (after drop /add) that captures all enrolled students as of that day. It is widely used in official external reporting, for instance to the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES). o Unduplicated enrollment or Distinct Students : for a given academic year, any enrolled student is counted once (regardless of whether he/she is enrolled for one semester, two semesters, one session, etc.). This is an internal key performance indicator, and the best measure for how many students are served in a given year. o FTE (full-time equivalent): a method for counting full-time and part-time students, weighting each based on credit hours. It is the method that comes closest to combining student and credits. Dates and timeframes: o Academic years are named for the calendar year at the end; e.g., 2017 refers to the year ending in mid-2017, and includes Fall 16 and Spring 17. o Note that some data are available only after year end, so this report mostly summarizes the last full academic year. However, some data (retention and Fall 17-18 enrollment) are available for the current year, and are labeled accordingly.

12-Month Calculated FTE (Full-Time Equivalent) Enrollment Trends Note: 12-month calculated FTE uses credit hours to yield a value representing the corresponding number of students enrolled full-time for one full school year. This gives a meaningful representation of instructional activity that occurred during the academic year and removes any bias due to full-time or part-time student enrollment. The formula is as follows: FTE = Hours / 30 + Hours / 24 + Professional Hours / 37 UG Credits Enrolled UG High School UG Calculated 12-month FTE* UG High School TOTAL 2014 15406 280 2071 513.5 9.3 0.0 86.3 609.2 2015 17192 546 108 2039 573.1 18.2 3.6 85.0 679.8 2016 17604 527 591 2354 586.8 17.6 19.7 98.1 722.2 2017 21408 53 652 2466 713.6 1.8 21.7 102.8 839.9 Percent Lutheran: 12-Month Enrollment Past Ten Years Distinct students by academic year All Student Level Types 2008 31.0% 65.6% 26.2% 10.2% 2009 38.0% 59.1% 37.7% 20.9% 2010 35.8% 54.0% 54.5% 15.8% 2011 32.1% 46.2% 14.3% 17.0% 2012 30.8% 38.6% 9.1% 18.7% 2013 32.7% 42.3% 33.3% 17.6% 2014 27.7% 37.4% 25.9% 10.4% 2015 25.9% 34.3% 23.1% 10.4% 2016 24.2% 35.8% 22.5% 11.0% 2017 20.9% 28.6% 28.6% 10.5% Key Metrics, New Students, Past Four Years: New Students, Fall Census 2014 2015 2016 2017 New Freshmen (first-time, full-time) Number 181 152 145 194 Average HS GPA 3.13 3.19 3.17 3.17 Average ACT 21.6 22.1 21.5 21.9 % Pell Eligible 39.2% 39.5% 30.3% 41.2% % Retained 66.9% 62.5% 69.7% 65.0% New Transfers (full-time) Number 31 67 63 110 % Pell Eligible 25.8% 44.8% 36.5% 47.3% % Retained 83.9% 61.2% 71.0% 82.7% 4

The collegestats.org survey took into account 100 of the most-attended universities and colleges in America. Over 179,000 students responded to surveys with questions focused on their school s security, including what their safety concerns were and how secure they felt at school. Concordia s student responses earned the university a No. 1 spot for having the most visible police presence of the 100 schools surveyed. The survey also found that communication between students, the police and the security team is deeply encouraged. For more information, see: https://www.cuaa.edu/news/2017-08-15.html 11
