Definitions and Notes

Information on "program grouping"
The report shows the head count of students per academic term given the filters selected on the right-hand side of the report.
Students are counted once in each term they register. Adding across terms would result in counting the same student multiple times. For a unique count of students over a fiscal year, refer to the Annual FTE report.
Students on a work term are considered to be full-time. If you want to include/exclude students on a work-term, please use the filter on the bottom right of the report.
Students registered directly at the Affiliated and Federated Institutions of Waterloo (these students are not included in the Performance Indicators)
