  • Graduation Rate Comparisons with Comparable Institutions Board of Trustees Meeting: September 23, 2010
    AGENDA ITEM C2: DEGREE COMPLETION BOARD RULE 400.0200.00 GRADUATION RATE COMPARISONS WITH COMPARABLE INSTITUTIONS BOARD OF TRUSTEES MEETING: SEPTEMBER 23, 2010 Administrators and staff members from the Office of Research and Information Services at Belmont Technical College report graduation rate data to the Ohio Board of Regents (OBR). These data are published by OBR for the University System of Ohio (USO) in reports accessible through the Higher Education Information (HEI) system. Institutions of higher education and members of the public can use these data to compare graduation completion rate data between and among USO public institutions. This report compares graduation rate data for Ohio’s community colleges. Comparing graduation rates at BTC with rates at comparable institutions is one way the Board of Trustees and administrators monitor the college’s progress and improvement toward helping students achieve their educational goals (Board of Trustees, Ends Policies, Section IV, 400.0200.00 Degree Completion). This report relies upon data from the HEI system that has been systematically gathered, organized, and presented to facilitate meaningful comparisons across institutions within the USO. These data are readily available to members of the public who have computer access and interest in knowing about graduation rates in Ohio’s public institutions, and the college community benefits from being knowledgeable about Belmont data that is accessible to the public. The data have been standardized across all institutions. Thus, as in the first table, the columns showing, “time-to-degree credit hours” for institutions are expressed in semester hours. Overall, comparisons are more valid and reliable when systematic processes such as HEI have been implemented to standardize measurements.

The Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) is a system of survey components that collects data from all institutions that provide postsecondary education and are eligible to receive Title IV funding across the United States and other U.S. jurisdictions. These data are used at the federal and state level for policy analysis and development; at the institutional level for benchmarking and peer analysis; and by students and parents, through the College Navigator (https://nces.ed.gov/collegenavigator/), an online tool to aid in the college search process. Additional information about IPEDS can be found on the website at https://nces.ed.gov/ipeds. What Is the Purpose of This Report? The Data Feedback Report is intended to provide institutions a context for examining the data they submitted to IPEDS. The purpose of this report is to provide institutional executives a useful resource and to help improve the quality and comparability of IPEDS data. What Is in This Report? The figures in this report provide a selection of indicators for your institution to compare with a group of similar institutions. The figures draw from the data collected during the 2019-20 IPEDS collection cycle and are the most recent data available. The inside cover of this report lists the pre-selected comparison group of institutions and the criteria used for their selection. The Methodological Notes at the end of the report describe additional information about these indicators and the pre-selected comparison group. Where Can I Do More with IPEDS Data? Each institution can access previously released Data Feedback Reports from 2005 and customize this 2020 report by using a different comparison group and IPEDS variables of its choosing.

  • BOARD RULE 400.0200.00 Comparison Of
    AGENDA ITEM B3: DEGREE COMPLETION BOARD RULE 400.0200.00 GRADUATION RATE COMPARISON WITH COMPARABLE INSTITUTIONS BOARD OF TRUSTEES MEETING: OCTOBER 24, 2013 Comparison of graduation rates among Ohio’s 23 community colleges is studied to measure Belmont College’s progress and improvement toward the Ohio completion and student success agenda (Board of Trustees, Ends Policies, Section IV, 400.0200.00 Degree Completion). This report relies upon data from the Higher Education Information (HEI) system that has been gathered from the 23 community colleges in the University System of Ohio (USO). Tables and charts are organized, and presented to facilitate informed comparisons across similar institutions within the USO. Presentation of Data The data presented in this report show the number of associate degrees awarded by institutions, the number of semester-equivalent credits earned by students, and the percent of students who earned associate degrees within time categories that range from “2 years or less” to “more than 4 years” from each of Ohio’s community colleges. HEI includes in its report, students who have earned a minimum of 60 credits at the institution where the degree completion is awarded. Thus, students who transfer credits in when they begin at an institution are assumed to have been transfer students and their awards are not included in HEI’s report. Table I, Five-year trend in associate degree awards, compares the length of time for earning associate degrees by non-transfer students at Belmont from the 2006/2007 academic year through the 2011/2012 academic year. Table II, Time and credits to associate degree for Ohio community college students graduating in 2011-2012, includes the same data for Belmont as is shown in Table 1, and also includes comparable data for all community colleges in the USO.
