Note:  Retention is defined as the percent of enrolled students of a fall semester who return for the following fall semester.  Example:  A student who is enrolled as a   
new freshman in the Fall Semester 1996 and who was also enrolled as an undergraduate in the Fall Semester 1997 is reflected in the 79.1% continued enrollment   
figure above.  Students admitted to the Graduate College at OSU are counted as graduated.  Students admitted to the Center for Veterinary Health Sciences after their   
third year are also counted as graduated.  This table includes Summer 2006 graduates.
