INSTITUTIONAL RESEARCH

This summary of material was compiled by the Office of Institutional Research

with the assistance and input of various other offices. The purpose of this document is

to serve as a ready reference which provides a point-in-time picture of Texas Christian

University.

The information included in this document is organized into seven major data

areas: Student Right-to-Know, Entering Freshman, Student, Academic Program,

Faculty and Staff, Financial Resource, and Physical Facilities. Data based on the Fall

1997 statistics have been combined and supplemented with historical data in each area.

While most summaries are based on Fall statistics, some are based on the fiscal year

ended May 31, 1997.

All data are compiled on the twelfth class day and are comparable from year-to-

year; however, changes in methods of calculation may have occurred. Footnotes on

specific tables call attention to significant differences.
