This data point provides a summary of high school academic performance through placing students in one of three groups based on similar grade performance and course rigor. Admitted students are not equally distributed between these hierarchical group. As of 1/29/2025, admitted first-year students are distributed across the three academic groups as follows:  

• Group 1: (34.0% of admits) This group has achieved all A/A- Grades taking rigorous courses across 4-5 course subjects. Course subject areas include English, Math, Science, Social Studies, and World Language

• Group 2: (33.5%) Most of the students in this group have achieved A- grades with rigor across 4 subjects. Some students may have achieved higher grades with slightly lower rigor or slightly lower grades with slightly greater rigor.

• Group 3: (32.4%) This group contains all remaining admits. Most students in this group have achieved A-/AB grades with rigor across 2-4 subjects. 

It is appropriate to note that access to high course rigor is not consistent among our admitted students and that some schools do not offer as many opportunities for advanced course work. As a result, not every student will have an opportunity to achieve at the highest academic performance and course rigor groups. The Academic Performance and Course Rigor Group should be used in conjunction with other aspects of student achievement.

A Department ID is the sequence of numbers that identifies a specific campus department, program, or entity. Historically, the Department ID was known as a "UDDS," which stands for "Unit, Division, Department, Subdepartment." This term is still in use in some resources, so we are including it in this glossary listing.

In more practical terms, a Department ID/UDDS is the unique combination of letters and numbers that identify the division, department, and possibly subdepartment, associated with a particular personnel, research, financial, or other activity or transaction.

EXAMPLE:  The full Department ID for a particular Letters & Science Department would be written as : 48XXXX.

"48" stands for "College of Letters & Science"

"XXXX" are the four numbers that identify the specific department, program, project, or other administrative entity.

A list of Letters & Science Department ID/UDDS numbers can be found at:

Random Access Memory

Once a submission has been scheduled for review at an IRB meeting, IRB Office staff can reassign the primary or secondary reviewer responsible for conducting the review, should scheduling or other conflicts arise. 

During or after an IRB meeting, IRB staff use this activity to record the outcome of the review (e.g. approved, deferred, etc.).

A study that has been assigned to an IRB meeting may need to be removed from the agenda for various reasons (new information has come to light, the study team needs to make additional revisions, etc.).  This activity allows IRB staff to remove a previously scheduled item from an agenda and send it back to pre-review.

The first two stomachs of a ruminant comprised of the reticulum and the rumen. A microbial population lives in the rumen and enable the cow to digest dietary fiber. The digesta in the rumen and the reticulum is being exchanged once about every 50 to 60 seconds under the influence of a rhythmic cycle of contraction which also results in passage of some digesta from the reticulum into the omasum through the reticulo-omasal orifice.

The second stomach of a ruminant in which folds of the mucous membrane form hexagonal cells. Also called honeycomb stomach. The reticulum is joined to the omasum by the reticulo-omasal orifice.
