FACT BOOK & OUTCOMES

OFFICE OF INSTITUTIONAL RESEARCH

On April 1, 2010 we welcomed our new president. Dr. Edythe M. Abdullah holds a Juris Doctor degree from the University of Florida Holland Law Center in Gainesville and a Leadership Certificate in the Management of Lifelong Education from Harvard University, and was a Kellogg Fellow with the League of Innovation in Community Colleges. She comes to ECC from the Downtown Campus of Florida State College in Jacksonville where she served as President.

This 2009 – 2010 Fact Book & Outcomes presents important statistics regarding enrollment, retention and graduation. It contains 52 pages of important facts and 41 pages of outcomes data. The tables in this book are designed to be copied for use for grant applications, program evaluations, internal reports, etc. All graphs and tables are available electronically. The data in this report reflects only the credit granting programs of the college. Highlights pertaining to enrollment, retention, and graduation are below.

Highlights regarding enrollment:

Total enrollment at Essex County College continues to increase. In Fall 2009 13,314 students attended Essex. This increase of 995 students represents a 8 percent increase over Fall 2008 enrollment (using October 15th census date). To date this is the largest Fall class in the history of the college. The college has experienced a 29.9 percent growth over the last five years. During the Fall 2009 a total of 4,213 students were new students, almost on-third of the student body. With regard to enrollment status, 59 percent were enrolled full-time, up 3 percent from last Fall. Enrollment at the West Essex Campus increased to 2,103, an increase of 26.5 percent. Enrollment at FOCUS increased slightly (by 23 students) and enrollment at Ironbound decreased slightly (by 3 students) to 199 students. Summer I 2010 enrollment increased by 8.8 percent to a record high of 4,108 and Summer II 2010 enrollment increased by 4.2 percent to 2,232. West Essex also experienced a large increase of 38.5 percent, serving a total of 612 students in Summer I and a 24.3 percent increase in Summer II serving a total of 461 students. The summer statistics remain based on 5th day data.

i So how many individual credit students does the college actually serve each year? The unduplicated count for 2009-2010 18,132; for 2008 – 2009 is 16,465; for 2007 – 2008 is 14,867; for 2006-2007 is 15,041 students; for 2005-2006, is 14,216 students; for 2004-2005, 14,269 students. This increase from 2008 – 2009 to 2009 – 2010 is 1,667 or 10.1 percent.

The table on age and ethnicity trends from Fall 2000 to Fall 2009 may be found on page 52. Noteworthy is the change in percent of students in the 17 to 22 age category by campus. It appears that on the Main Campus those in the 17 to 22 age group peaked at 57 percent in Fall 2008 and decreased to 50 percent in Fall 2009. The ten year change at West Essex was 9 percent (from 40% to 49%). The table also reports change in ethnicity for all students over a ten year period. With the exception of students who described themselves as Hispanics, the percent of students who describe themselves as White, Black/African American or Asian has remained relatively constant. Those students describing themselves as Hispanic increased 6 percent since Fall 2000.

Highlights regarding retention:

The Fall to Spring (one semester for first-time, full-time degree seeking students) retention decreased from a high of 81.9 percent (Fall 2002 to Spring 2003) to 75.7 percent (Fall 2008 to Spring 2009). The Fall to Fall retention also decreased from 58.3 percent (Fall 2002 to Fall 2003) to 53.7 percent (Fall 2008 to Fall 2010). Over the past five years the Fall to Fall retention rate has been around 53 percent (56.4%, 51.2%, 48.6%, 55.1% and 53.7%) The 48.6 percent retention from Fall 2006 to Fall 2007 is the lowest. Unfortunately, the Fall 2008 to Fall 2010 retention rate has decreased 1.4 percent to 53.7 percent. This remains lower than the rate of many of the best-practice colleges where 65 percent Fall to Fall retention is considered very good.

Highlights regarding graduation:

The college’s official IPEDS Graduate Rate Survey three-year graduation rate (for first-time, full-time degree seeking students) has been approximately 5.0 to 6.0 percent over the last three years. This year our GRS rate for the 2006 cohort is 5.3 percent. Our four-year graduation rate currently is 10.7 percent; five-year rate 13.2 percent and six- year rate 16.4 percent (for the 2003 cohort). Some comparative three-year GRS rates are for Hudson (8%), Union (5%), Passaic (6%), Bergen (11%), Middlesex (13%) and Brookdale (17%).

Summary Observations

In addition to data pertaining to the areas mentioned above (enrollment, retention, and graduation), the purpose of the Fact Book & Outcomes is to provide the reader with the college’s overall enrollment history separated by demographics as well as a five-year review of enrollment trends by program. Longitudinal outcomes measures including retention and graduation rates are provided for eighteen cohorts (nine all student and nine WEC cohorts). The outcomes section also contains transfer information and our

ii graduates’ opinions of their educational experiences at Essex County College. These tables should be duplicated when necessary for other institutional reports and grant requests. Again, please note that all tables are available electronically for easy insertion into other documents.

Chapter 1 contains general institutional data as well as important demographic data pertaining to Essex County and Newark. Chapter 2 reports Fall and Spring enrollment data. Chapter 3 contains various demographic profiles and Chapter 4 reports graduation statistics and outcomes. Cohort tracking information is in Chapter 5 which includes a summary page with retention and graduation data for eighteen cohorts.

The purpose of this Summary Observations section is to allow the reader to review the content of this Fact Book & Outcomes and locate data quickly. The observations are presented as brief “bullets” of information. Because numerous observations can be made from the data in this report, readers are encouraged to review each table carefully. All tables are meant to be used for reference purposes but are also available for importing to any other college documents.

The following are a few observations. After each observation is the page number(s) that refer to the tables from which the observations are drawn. Note that some observations draw upon more than one table. Also, comments are not made for all tables.

Chapter 4 Outcomes: Graduation & Transfer Statistics

Chapter 4 includes graduation and transfer statistics as well as the results of the FY 09 Graduation Survey (percent responding after two mailings = 22%). This survey provides the college with opinions of our college graduates regarding academic preparation and student services. These survey results and cohort tracking (Chapter 5) provide basic outcome measures which are important and are presented here to be used for college-wide assessment and planning efforts.

 The number of degrees conferred for FY 2008 was 962, a record for the college. (57)

 The programs with the highest number of graduates are:

Business Administration AS (112); Liberal Arts, AA (109); Nursing, AAS, (103); Social Science AS (73) and Education AA (72). (58-60)

 The graduates’ primary objective for attending ECC was: to prepare as a first career (28%), or transfer (29%). Twenty-one (21) percent wanted to prepare for a career change and 9 percent wanted to improve their job skills. Overall, 58 percent of the graduate respondents noted that their primary objective for attending ECC was career (not transfer) related. Only 4 percent were here to pursue a personal interest. (61)

vi  The graduates’ primary objectives were “completely achieved” by 58 percent of the respondents and “largely achieved” by another 24 percent. Only 1 percent indicated that their objective was “not at all” achieved. (61)

 This year 71 percent reported that they had no problems transferring credits. Thirteen (13) percent reported a problem transferring credit hours and 14 percent reported difficulty in having our transcript sent. (62)

 Seventy-two (72) percent reported 60 or more credits transferred. (62)

 Sixty-nine (69) percent of the transfer students attended their transfer colleges full-time. (63)

 Eighty-three (83) percent reported ECC’s preparation for their transfer college as “good” or “excellent”. Only 3 percent reported “fair” or “poor” (63)

 Most of the respondents reported they were attending Montclair State University, Rutgers-Newark, or Kean University. (64)

 Transfer tracking: The information on page 65 allows one to follow 2,466 Fall 2006 first-time, degree-seeking students and find out what college they were attending in Spring 2009. Of the 2,466 Fall first-time degree-seeking students, 539 or 21.8 percent, were still enrolled at ECC in Spring 2009 and 142 students or 5.8 percent were attending another New Jersey institution. A total of 46 students or 1.9 percent were attending a college out-of-state in the Spring 2008. Seventy (70) percent were not found in any in-state or out-of- state institution. (65)

 Graduates were asked to evaluate our college and services: (69-71) The highest degree of satisfaction (“excellent” + “good”) was again for “Web Services” (83%) and “Quality of Major Course Instruction” (81%). These were followed by “Library/Learning Resources” (76%), Tutoring Services” (71%), “Registration Procedures” (70%), “Enrollment Services” (68%), “ “Academic Advisement” (65%), “Transfer Counseling” (60%), “Counseling” (60%), “Financial Aid” (55%), “Student Activities” (53%), and “Job Placement Assistance” (36%). (66-68) Please note that a more comprehensive evaluation of the Career Resource Center is on page 74. Using a different methodology and evaluating all their services (not just job placement), the “excellent” + “good” percent is 90 percent.

 Of the 147 respondents to the employment section, 94 (64% down from 73% last year) were employed full-time. Thirty-seven (37) percent were employed before entering ECC and another 22 percent got their jobs while attending ECC (before graduating). (70)

vii  Sixty-four percent (64%) of the respondents reported that their schoolwork was directly or somewhat related to their job. However, 35 percent reported that their program of study was not related to their job. (69)

 Seventy-six (76) percent of the graduates that were employed indicated that ECC training was useful: extremely useful” (21%), “very useful” (20%), “somewhat useful” (22%) or “useful” (18%). (71)

 Of the respondents who were employed, 52 percent found employment through a friend or relative, 4 percent through a newspaper ad and 1 percent through the college placement office (2 persons). (72)

 The median starting salary was in the $24,000 - $26,999 salary range and their “present” salary median was in the $27,000 - $29,999 range. Thirty-four (34) percent (up from 29% last year) report “present” salary of over $42,000. (73)

 This year a list of some of our student’s employers can be found on page 74.

Chapter 5 Outcomes: Cohort Tracking

Cohort retention tracking to graduation continues to provide important information (see pages 75-92). This tracking file is more accurate and more meaningful than tracking data from the State. This is due to the fact that the college can take out voids, no shows, and total withdrawals from the cohort. The table on page 93 provides a one table summary of retention and graduation from the tracking of nine cohorts for up to twelve semesters.

With regard to graduation, two statistics are reported for each cohort. For example, for the Fall 2004 FTFT cohort (see page 75) the six-year graduation rate is 16.4 percent. In addition, the tracking of ALL first-time Fall 2004 students indicates that 282 of 1,787 students or 15.8 percent graduated. Including first-time part-time students allows the College to evaluate its overall effectiveness in terms of graduation. Three-year graduation rate is improving but remains relatively low. The four year rate for the Fall 2006 FTFT cohort is 10.7 percent (79). It is important to note that approximately one out of five FTFT students will graduate in six years.

The following is an example of how to read the cohort tracking tables.

Fall 2004 to Fall 2005 retention for all first-time, full-time (FTFT) and all first-time, part-time (FTPT) degree-seeking students was 56.4 percent and 44.8 percent respectively. This year this cohort was tracked to the Spring of 2010. The retention for three-years* for all first-time, full-time was 19.8 percent and for all first-time, part-time was 17.9 percent. The fourth-year retention rate for FTFT was 11.3 percent and for FTPT 10.5 percent. The six-year graduation rate for FTFT was 16.4 percent (compared to the FTFT 1996 rate of 13.0

viii percent) and the six-year graduation rate for all first-time students (including first-time part-time) was 15.8 percent (compared to the all first- time Fall 1996 graduation rate of 11.8 percent). (78) *RETENTION – Three years = return after 6 semesters for a seventh semester.

 Fall 2004 to Fall 2005 retention for West Essex first-time, full-time and West Essex first time, part-time was 70.9 percent and 54.8 percent respectively. This year this cohort was tracked to the Spring of 2010. The retention for three years for West Essex all first-time, full-time was 24.1 percent and for all first-time, part-time was 21.0 percent. The four-year retention for West Essex FTFT was 13.9 percent and for FTPT 8.1 percent. The six-year graduation rate for FTFT at West Essex was 22.8 percent (for Fall 1996 the rate was 15.6 percent) and the six- year graduation rate for all first-time students (including first-time part-time) was 20.9 percent (for Fall 1996 this was 13.5 percent). (76)

 Tracking data for Fall 2005 cohorts may be found on pages 77-78.

 Tracking data for Fall 2006 cohorts may be found on pages 79-80.

 Tracking data for Fall 2007 cohorts may be found on pages 81-82.

 Tracking data for Fall 2008 cohorts may be found on pages 83-84.

 Tracking data for Spring 2005 cohorts may be found on pages 85-86.

 Tracking data for Spring 2006 cohorts may be found on pages 87-88.

 Tracking data for Spring 2007 cohorts may be found on pages 89-90.

 Tracking data for Spring 2008 cohorts may be found on pages 91-92.

ix  A summary of tracking data with retention statistics for nine cohorts for twelve semesters plus graduation data may be found on page 93.

For example: Fall to Fall (see page 93) one-year retention percentages for the Fall 2004 first-time, full-time (FTFT) cohort was 56.4 percent; 51.2 percent for the Fall 2005 cohort; 48.6 percent for the Fall 2006 cohort; 55.1 percent for the Fall 2007 cohort and 53.7 percent for the Fall 2008 cohort.. The graduation rate is also presented for each first-time, full-time cohort. The rate varies from 2.2 percent for the Fall 2008 cohort (two-year rate) to 16.4 percent for the Fall 2004 cohort (six-year rate). (93)
