Facts & Trends 2008

Facts & Trends is designed as a basic reference document with admissions, financial aid, enrollment, persistence, graduation and outcomes, degree, semester credit hour, faculty and staff, research, and financial information for the nine academic and six health-related institutions and The University of Texas System as a whole. This document is intended to provide accurate and consistent information for internal use and for the general public and as a statistical supplement to the UT System Accountability and Performance Report. For the most part, data are reported for the most recent six years to identify trends over time.

 

Data maintained by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board have been used extensively in this publication. However, these data may vary somewhat from information presented and used internally by individual System institutions due to differences in management information systems, data definitions, and intended application.
