  • Attempted Units are the number of units attempted to be completed by a student, and are at the course level.

  • Attempted units Term are the total number of units on a student record during a given term.  Class Sections with a W (withdrawal notated on the transcript) are included. Class Sections dropped without a W are not included. Class Sections without a grade are not counted in ISIS.

  • Attempted Units Current Cumulative are the total number of units on a student record, for the student level.

The completed units are included in the census views once available as a courtesy to support analytic needs. 

It is presumed that analysts working with the data are aware of that grades / completed units are not available at the census date and are indeed end of term measures.

This is a design decision.

Some times "Student Classification" for some students in their first year is 'Sophomore' although their "Applicant Type" is 'New Freshman/High School', this is because some students have a lot of credits transferring from their high school that they are considered sophomore in their first year.

What is the difference between "W" and Null in grades?

If a student withdraw a course after census dates their grade is "W", but if they drop the course before the census dates, they don't have a grad at all and their grade is Null, or blank. In either case, Class Section Enrollment Status = "Drop" and Class Section Enrollment Flag = "No"

"Student PID" is the lowest level in Demographics view.

27

Why the Applied Count is very close to admitted count in the Admission view?

The drop in Applied Count is a difference in the way data is imported into ISIS. Before ApplyUC, started in 2018 they would import all applications into ISIS. After ApplyUC, now they only import Admitted students into ISIS. Therefore there's a drop in APPLIED_COUNT in 2018 and forward. Applied Count is actually Applied and Admitted students after that point. Admitted Count is actually the number of students who actually came (some decide to go elsewhere after they are admitted).

Looking for current undergrad Athletes:

Since "registration status" filter has been removed from the logic of "Student Athletics Team Current", all the athletes are now coming through.




However the students who are already graduated should be filtered out. This can be done by setting the "Graduation Date UG Latest" to Null, if you are only looking for undergrad athletes.

Right now, SAH provides the following information about Applicant Type:

  • Applicant Type Code Current

  •  

    • This field reflects the Applicant Type Code from the most recent student application.

    • For example, when a student has been readmitted this value will be READ.

  • Applicant Type Code First

  •  

    • This field reflects the Applicant Type Code from the student’s first admission to UCSD.

    • For example, the value in this field may be VIS if that is the value on their first application to attend UCSD.

  • Applicant Type Code

  •  

    • This is a term based field that will reflect the most recent acceptance application.

    • This field would allow for a term by term review of accepted student applicant types for the student’s career at UCSD.

 

Important Note: There are very few cases where the student "Applicant Type Code First" is 'Vis' but the "Applicant Type Code Current" or "Applicant Type Code" might be 'READ' instead of 'TRAN' or 'ICT'. In this case if you have a filter to just look for TRAN or ICT, then you might miss those student.

An ICT is an inter-campus transfer student. 

These are students that apply to UC San Diego who have matriculated at another UC campus (excluding extension) during a regular term prior to applying here and it is their last school of attendance. 

Students who have an applicant type of TRAN are transfer students whose last school of attendance is not a UC, but there is a possibility they attended another UC Campus before transferring to their current institution.

Attempted Units Term are a summarization at the end of the term and are sourced from Grade activities. Therefore since grades aren’t posted until the end of the term,  there aren’t records for  Attempted Units Term in the current term, yet.

However "Attempted Units" which is per student per class section, is available in the Enrollment view as well as for current term.
