On behalf of the The Oregonian/OregonLive, I request the following data:
The average high school Grade Point Average (GPA) of entering freshmen to each undergraduate college (science, liberal arts, etc.) in the university and their average GPAs after completion of the first semester, freshman year, in each college of the university, in the following form:
By individual high school in the state of Oregon (showing high school code and code description);
By individual school district in the state of Oregon;
For the classes entering the freshman year, by college, in 2014, 2013, and 2012.
Please note that we seek no identifying data on any individual student. We therefore exclude from this request data from high schools or districts sending to you fewer than three (3) students in a given year. We seek the average GPAs of minimally three (3) students entering from any sending high school for the specified years and their average GPAs after completion of the first semester in each of the university’s colleges in the specified years.
Additionally, we request:
Enrollment numbers of freshmen, by college, for the university for the years 2014, 2013, and 2012;
Four-year graduation rates, by college, for the university for the years 2014, 2013, and 2012;
Six-year graduation rates, by college, for the university for the years 2014, 2013, and 2012.
