Profiles 2009 – 2010
1
June 2010
To the University of Denver Community:
Profiles is a compilation of information about the University of Denver – its faculty, programs,
students, facilities, and finances – that has been published every year since 1981.
Profiles 2009-2010 contains information organized in sections: General University, Admission,
Financial Aid and Scholarships, Enrollment, Persistence, Study Abroad, Courses and Credit Hours,
Programs and Degrees, Faculty and Staff, and Financial Data. A brief narrative introduces each
section.
Because Profiles is an official record of the University’s activities and serves as the source of data
for external reporting as well as internal documentation and planning, accuracy is of crucial
importance. Occasionally, errors are discovered and adjustments are made in subsequent editions of
the publication. That recommends using only the most recent volume of Profiles for both current
and historical data.
Profiles is prepared by the Office of Institutional Research. I thank our colleagues in that office and
all of you on campus who helped to gather the information presented in this document. If you have
any questions about data integrity or interpretation, please direct them to the Office of Institutional
Research at 303-871-2287.
We hope that you will find this edition of Profiles useful. Please let us know if you have any
suggestions for change or improvement.

Undergraduate full-time tuition, required fees, room and board List the typical tuition, required fees, and room and board for a full-time undergraduate student for the FULL 2010-2011 academic year (30 semester or 45 quarter hours for institutions that derive annual tuition by multiplying credit hour cost by number of credits). A full academic year refers to the period of time generally extending from September to June; usually equated to two semesters, two trimesters, three quarters, or the period covered by a four-one-four plan. Room and board is defined as double occupancy and 19 meals per week or the maximum meal plan. Required fees include only charges that all full-time students must pay that are not included in tuition (e.g., registration, health, or activity fees.) Do not include optional fees (e.g., parking, laboratory use).

J. DEGREES CONFERRED
For each of the following discipline areas, provide the percentage of diplomas/certificates, associate, and bachelor’s degrees awarded. To
determine the percentage, use majors, not headcount (e.g., students with one degree but a double major will be represented twice). Calculate the percentage from your institution’s IPEDS Completions by using the sum of 1st and 2nd majors for each CIP code as the
numerator and the sum of the Grand Total by 1st Majors and the Grand Total by 2nd major as the denominator. If you prefer, you can compute the percentages using 1st majors only.

External scholarships and grants: Scholarships and grants received from outside (private) sources that students bring with them (e.g., Kiwanis, National Merit scholarships). The institution may process paperwork to receive the dollars, but it has no role in determining the recipient or the dollar amount awarded.Financial aid applicant: Any applicant who submits any one of the institutionally required financial aid applications/forms, such as the FAFSA. Indebtedness: Aggregate dollar amount borrowed through any loan program (federal, state, subsidized, unsubsidized, private, etc.; excluding parent loans) while the student was enrolled at an institution. Student loans co-signed by a parent are assumed to be the responsibility of the student and should be included.
Institutional scholarships and grants: Endowed scholarships, annual gifts and tuition funded grants for which the institution determines the recipient.Financial need: As determined by your institution using the federal methodology and/or your institution's own standards. Need-based aid: College-funded or college-administered award from institutional, state, federal, or other sources for which a student must have financial need to qualify. This includes both institutional and noninstitutional student aid (grants, jobs, and loans).Need-based scholarship or grant aid: Scholarships and grants from institutional, state, federal, or other sources for which a student must have financial need to qualify.Need-based self-help aid: Loans and jobs from institutional, state, federal, or other sources for which a student must demonstrate financial need to qualify.Non-need-based scholarship or grant aid: Scholarships and grants, gifts, or merit-based aid from institutional, state, federal, or other sources (including unrestricted funds or gifts and endowment income) awarded solely on the basis of academic achievement, merit, or any other non-need-based reason. When reporting questions H1 and H2, non-need-based aid that is used to meet need should be counted as need-based aid. Note: Suggested order of precedence for counting non-need money as need-based:
Non-need institutional grantsNon-need tuition waiversNon-need athletic awardsNon-need federal grantsNon-need state grantsNon-need outside grantsNon-need student loansNon-need parent loansNon-need workNon-need-based self-help aid: Loans and jobs from institutional, state, or other sources for which a student need not demonstrate financial need to qualify.Work study and employment: Federal and state work study aid, and any employment packaged by your institution in financial aid awards.

*Non-need-based aid used to meet need is counted in this category. For example, a needy student earns a
Chancellor's scholarship based on his/her Admission Rating. This merit scholarship is used to meet his/her
financial need, and therefore is counted as a need-based award. If the student did not have financial need, the
scholarship would be counted in the non-need-based column.

Financial Aid Definitions
Collection year
The collection year is the academic year in which IPEDS data were collected. Most Institutional
Characteristics, Salaries, Fall Staff, Fall Enrollment, and Employees by Assigned Position data
are collected for the current year; Completions, 12-Month Enrollment, Student Financial Aid,
and Finance data collections cover the prior year.
Early decision
Early decision is a plan that allows students to apply and be notified of an admission decision
(and financial aid offer, if applicable) well in advance of the regular notification date. Applicants
agree to accept an offer of admission and, if admitted, to withdraw their applications from other
colleges. There are three possible decisions in response to such an application: admitted, denied,
or not admitted but forwarded for consideration with the regular applicant pool, without
prejudice.
Federal grants
Federal grants are transfers of money or property from the Federal government to the education
institution without a requirement to receive anything in return. These grants may take the form of
grants to the institutions to undertake research or they may be in the form of student financial
aid.
Federal grants (grants/educational assistance funds)
These are grants provided by federal agencies such as the U.S. Department of Education,
including Title IV Pell Grants and Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants (SEOG). Also
includes need-based and merit-based educational assistance funds and training vouchers
provided from other federal agencies and/or federally-sponsored educational benefits programs,
including the Veteran's Administration, Department of Labor, and other federal agencies.
Federal Work-Study (FWS)
Federal Work-Study is a part-time work program awarding on- or off-campus jobs to students
who demonstrate financial need. FWS positions are primarily funded by the government, but are
also partially funded by the institution. FWS is awarded to eligible students by the college as part
of the student’s financial aid package. The maximum FWS award is based on the student’s
financial need, the number of hours the student is able to work, and the amount of FWS funding
available at the institution. This is a type of Title IV Aid, but is not considered grant aid to
students.
Fellowships
These are grants-in-aid and trainee stipends to graduate students. Fellowships do not include
funds for which services to the institution must be rendered, such as payments for teaching, or
loans.
123
Office of Institutional Research University of Denver
Financial aid
Financial aid is Federal Work Study, grants, loans to students (government and/or private),
assistantships, scholarships, fellowships, tuition waivers, tuition discounts, veteran's benefits,
employer aid (tuition reimbursement) and other monies (other than from relatives/friends)
provided to students to meet expenses. This excludes loans to parents.
Grants by state government
These are state monies awarded to the institution under student financial aid programs, including
the state portion of State Student Incentive Grants (SSIG).
Institutional grants (funded allowances)
Institutional grants (funded allowances) are scholarships and fellowships awarded to students
from institutional resources that are restricted to student aid. Private institutions generally report
these grants as allowances. If control over these resources passes to the student, the amount is
reported as an expense.
Institutional grants from restricted resources
These are institutional grants to students funded from restricted-expendable resources for student
aid, such as scholarships and fellowships.
Loans to students
Loans to students are any monies that must be repaid to the lending institution for which the
student is the designated borrower. Includes all Title IV subsidized and unsubsidized loans and
all institutionally- and privately-sponsored loans. Does not include PLUS and other loans made
directly to parents.
Local grants
These are local monies awarded to the institution under local government student aid programs.
Local grants (revenues)
These are sums of money or property bestowed on a postsecondary institution by a local
government. These amounts can be treated as an allowance, an agency transaction, or as a
student aid expense in the institution's General Purpose Financial Statements (GPFS) and are
reported differently depending on their treatment. Generally, however, private institutions report
these grants as allowances when applied to the student's account and as local grant revenues
when received.
Other expenses
Other expenses are the amount of money (estimated by the financial aid office) needed by a
student to cover expenses such as laundry, transportation, and entertainment.
124
Office of Institutional Research University of Denver
Other federal grants
These are federal monies awarded to the institution under federal government student aid
programs, such as Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants (SEOG), DHHS training grants
(aid portion only), State Student Incentive Grants (SSIG), and other federal student aid programs.
Pell grants are not included in this classification. Note: if the federal government selects the
student recipients and simply transmits the funds to the institution for disbursement to the
student, the amounts are not considered as revenues and subsequently there are no discounts and
allowances or scholarships and fellowships expenses. If the funds are made available to the
institution for selection of student recipients, then the amounts received are considered as
nonoperating revenues and subsequently as discounts and allowances or scholarships and
fellowships expenses.
Scholarships
These are grants-in-aid, trainee stipends, tuition and required fee waivers, prizes or other
monetary awards given to undergraduate students.
Scholarships and fellowships
Scholarships and fellowships are outright grants-in-aid, trainee stipends, tuition and fee waivers,
and prizes awarded to students by the institution, including Pell grants. Awards to undergraduate
students are most commonly referred to as "scholarships" and those to graduate students as
"fellowships." These awards do not require the performance of services while a student (such as
teaching) or subsequently as a result of the scholarship or fellowship. The term does not include
loans to students (subject to repayment), College Work-Study Program (CWS), or awards
granted because of faculty or staff status. Also not included are awards to students where the
selection of the student recipient is not made by the institution.
Scholarships and fellowships (expenses)
This is the portion of scholarships and fellowships granted that exceeds the amount applied to
institutional charges such as tuition and fees or room and board. The amount reported as expense
excludes allowances and discounts. The FASB survey uses the term "net grants in aid to
students" rather than "scholarships and fellowships."
State and local government grants
These are state and local monies awarded to the institution under state and local student aid
programs, including the state portion of State Student Incentives Grants (SSIG).
State and local grants
These are grant monies provided by the state such as Leveraging Educational Assistance
Partnerships (LEAP) (formerly SSIG's); merit scholarships provided by the state; and tuition and
fee waivers for which the institution was reimbursed by a state agency. Local government grants
include scholarships or gift-aid awarded directly to the student.

Undergraduate Student to Faculty Ratio
Fall Term
2005 through 2009
Notes: The Women's College and University College students are excluded. The undergraduate
student to faculty ratio is calculated using the Common Data Set method: ratio of full-time equivalent
students (full-time plus 1/3 part time) to full-time equivalent instructional faculty (full time plus 1/3
part time). In the ratio calculations, faculty and students in stand-alone graduate or professional
programs such as social work, education, professional psychology, and law in which faculty teach
virtually only graduate-level students are excluded. Undergraduate or graduate student teaching
assistants are not counted as faculty.

While pursuing a comprehensive liberal arts background in the Core Curriculum, Undergraduate Studies
students also begin substantive work in their major area of interest. Once students have declared a
major, they are counted in the division where that major resides. Undergraduate Studies students who
have not yet declared a major and non-degree students enrolled in traditional undergraduate courses are
counted as Other Undergraduate Studies Students in census enrollment reports.

Persistence Summary
Persistence rates are based on the first-time, full-time, degree seeking cohort of students who
enter each fall. The most recent one-year persistence rate is 86.4% based on week three
census dates.
There are no differences in the one-year persistence rates based on gender, geographic
region, or financial aid need status.
Not surprisingly, students enrolled in the Honors Program their first year were much more
likely to persist to their second year than the entire first year student cohort.
Students enrolled in a Living and Learning Community their first year were much more
likely to persist to their second year than the entire first year student cohort.

Persistence is defined as each one-year change in enrolled plus graduated students as a percentage of the
original entering class.
Entering student cohorts for Fall 2003-2006 have been reduced because of IPEDS Allowable Exclusions.
Per IPEDS definitions; students may be removed from a cohort if they left the institution for one of the
following reasons: died or were totally and permanently disabled; to serve in the armed forces; to serve with
a foreign aid service of the federal government, such as the Peace Corps; or to serve on official church
missions. The Fall 2003 cohort has been changed to 1,010 students (2 exclusions), the Fall 2004 cohort has
been changed to 1,124 (3 exclusions), and the Fall 2005 cohort has been changed to 1,089 (1 exclusion).

GPA: Registered students have a significantly higher (p≤.05) grade point average than students
who are not registered.
Honors Program: Honors students persist at a significantly better rate (p≤.05) than the overall
cohort.
Admission Rating: Students with an admission rating of 7, 8, or 9 persist at a significantly
lower rate (p≤.05) than the overall cohort.

Cherrington Global Scholars Students Only*
2004-2005 through 2008-2009
*Note: The Cherrington Global Scholars Program allows eligible undergraduate students to
study abroad at no additional cost beyond that of a term at DU, apart from variable personal
expenses. One of the requirements of participation in the Cherrington Global Scholars Program
is that students have a minimum University of Denver grade point average of 3.0. On average,
University of Denver undergraduate women earn higher grade point averages than men, which
may explain some of the differences in participation rates.

The DU-Iliff Joint Ph.D. Program
In September 1981, Iliff and the University of Denver jointly inaugurated a program leading to
the Doctor of Philosophy in Religious and Theological Studies. Although planned and staffed
initially by the faculties from Iliff and the University of Denver's Department of Religious
Studies, other faculty from the graduate Schools of Professional Psychology, Social Work and
International Studies and from the departments of Anthropology, History, Sociology, Political
Science, Psychology and Philosophy at the University are currently involved in the program.
In 1999-2000 the Joint Ph.D. Program was revised to make it more responsive to contemporary
movements in theological and religious studies. It features a combination of three required
courses for all students in the program and a great deal of flexibility and permeability between
the subject areas making up specialized concentrations in the study of religion and theology. The
revised structure gives educational breadth as well as opportunity for specialization.
The program is administered by the Joint Ph.D. Committee. This committee is composed of
faculty from both institutions, along with elected students, and is charged with the formulation
and general oversight of the academic policies and procedures for the program. The director
serves as the chief administrative officer of the program. The Joint Ph.D. office is located on the
Iliff campus.
Through the rich resources at Iliff and the University of Denver, facilities are available for
persons interested in disciplines ranging from those associated with pastoral ministries to highly
specialized studies in the major areas of religious and theological scholarship. The holdings of
the libraries at Iliff and the University sustain various research interests. Internet resources are
increasingly available for instruction and research.
The faculties of both institutions have long standing traditions of interest in providing
stimulating teaching, both in seminars and lectures. Moreover, the faculties have established
distinguished records in research and publication. They participate in the national societies of
their various disciplines. Research grants have come frequently to individual faculty members, in
turn providing exciting opportunities for students. Faculty members focus on providing a solid
foundation for novice scholars in order that they may become independent and innovative
thinkers in their own right.
In applying for admission, students are required to identify one concentration or combination of
concentrations in which to focus their studies. The Advisory Committees ordinarily consist of
two faculty members from the chosen concentration, and must have one faculty member
identified with another concentration. Students' concentrations, as interpreted by their Advisory
Committees, will determine coursework distribution, areas for comprehensive examinations, and,
of course, domains for eventual dissertation work.
205
Office of Institutional Research University of Denver
There are currently four concentrations in the Joint Ph.D. Program: Biblical Interpretation;
Religion and Psychological Studies; Religion and Social Change; and Theology, Philosophy, and
Cultural Theory. Additionally, students are required to participate in the Colloquium in Biblical
Interpretation (2 or 3 credit hours) at least once during the coursework phase of their degree
program. The Colloquium addresses key themes, issues, or topics in the field of Biblical Studies.

*Fall 2000, Fall 2003, Fall 2004 and Fall 2005 graduation rates have been adjusted to reflect a change in the end
of term first-time first-year cohort and the number of students graduating within six years. The Fall 2000 cohort
has been changed to 926 students (2 exclusions), the Fall 2003 cohort has been changed to 1,010 students (2
exclusions), the Fall 2004 cohort has been changed to 1,124 (3 exclusions), and the Fall 2005 cohort has been
changed to 1,089 (1 exclusion).
Students reported as graduating in a particular year have met all degree requirements prior to the Spring (June) or
Summer (August) ceremonies. The graduation rate measures only full-time, first-time degree-seeking
undergraduate students.

faculty who are on sabbatical leave. Faculty on leave-without-pay are excluded; if their courses are being covered by a full-time replacement the replacement is counted.
Department chairs are included; deans are excluded. Vacant positions are excluded. English Language Center teachers are excluded since that is a pre-collegiate program
(12 in 2009-10). Penrose Librarians (18 in 2009-10) are excluded because they are not teaching faculty. Added to the AAUP population above, this brings the 2009-10
total number of appointed full-time faculty to 641.
