About this report:
"FTIAC" stands for "first time in any college", and refers to students whose only prior college experience was either before high school graduation or in the summer immediately between high school and college.
Counties shown on this page are the 6 that traditionally contribute the highest numbers of GVSU students. Details for all Michigan counties are available on the "Geographic Origin" page of this Factbook
"Full-time" means 12 semester hours or more for undergraduate students; Nine hours or more for graduate students.
Race/Ethnicity categories shown are defined by the reporting standard used by the US Federal
government. For details, see
US Dept of Ed Guidance on Collecting, Maintaining and Reporting Data by Race or
Ethnicity.
* "Students of Color" presents an unduplicated count of students who chose at least one of
the following, regardless of nationality and any other race/ethnicity values they selected:
- African American or Black
- American Indian or Alaskan Native
- Asian
- Hispanic or Latino
- Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander
Students may enroll simultaneously in more than one GVSU college. Optional college selections use duplicative counts, so that each student is counted once in each college in which they're enrolled, and once in the university total. As a result, the sum of the college totals is greater than the actual university total.
