Enrollments fluctuate through the semester. Enrollments fluctuate through the semester.

For many courses we report FTES by taking a “snapshot” For many courses we report FTES by taking a “snapshot” 20% of the way through the course. This is called the 20% of the way through the course. This is called the “census day”. It is very important to drop any “no “census day”. It is very important to drop any “no shows”, since we can’t collect apportionment for students shows”, since we can’t collect apportionment for students who haven’t attended class at all. Census day should be who haven’t attended class at all. Census day should be indicated on the 1st day roster on MyWebServices.indicated on the 1st day roster on MyWebServices.

FTES, FTEF and FTE

FTE and FTEF are the same thing. They are the Full Time Equivalent Faculty

FTES is the Full Time Equivalent Student (as referred to on slides 5-7)

Page 25: Linda Retterath Mission College January 29, 2010

W/F is WSCH/FTEF

The WSCH used here is the Weekly Student contact Hours (not the semester WSCH). If you have semester WSCH, you can calculate the WSCH by dividing by 16.2.

WSCH/FTEF

What effects W/F?There are lots of things that effect it: online vs. in person, 16 week vs. short classes, load, as well as the number of students enrolled. WSCH only takes into account CA residents. (That is why PGC looks at total enrollment also).

The department chair needs to make sure that courses are coded correctly in datatel. The easiest way to do this is to check (and correct) the coding when given the rollover schedule. If mistakes are found later, a section form must be filled out.

Page 30: Linda Retterath Mission College January 29, 2010

W/F and the DistrictThis year our district’s W/F goal is 535.

Next year it will be 570. This means that we will need a higher average class size, in order to meet our goal.
