STATISTICAL REPORT
NORTH CAROLINA COMMUNITY COLLEGE SYSTEM
Winter 1996-97
This report contains a compilation of information taken from registration records submitted by each college and class reports on each class offered by each college. Data in the first table were taken from student registration records reported on the NCCCS 7-1 report. From this table, one can determine the number of persons enrolled in each program in each college. The total number of extension students shown for each college is an unduplicated count and may be less than the sum of the extension program areas. The total column is the sum of the curriculum subtotal and extension subtotal columns.
Information in the second table, compiled from Institution's Class Reports (ICR), is full-time equivalent (FTE) data. A large number of students in the community college system attend on a part-time basis; therefore, budgeting cannot be made on the basis of the number of individuals enrolled. The full-time equivalent, FTE, is the means that was developed to standardize reporting and is used as the basis for the allocation of State funds to the colleges. One quarter FTE, representative of the amount of time a "typical" student would attend class, is defined as a student enrollment of 16 hours of class, shop, or laboratory per week for 11 weeks. Several part-time students would constitute only one FTE. FTE for each quarter is calculated by dividing the number of student hours in membership for that eleven-week quarter by 176.
