Freeze Dates

The College creates its census files by freezing, i.e. taking a snapshot of, key data elements at prescribed times each semester.  The freeze date for the Fall and Spring semesters is exactly four weeks into each semester.  The Institutional freeze date for Summer is two weeks into Summer Session II. Freeze dates ensure that essential institutional data are captured consistently, with the same definitions and at the same time in the College's academic and administrative cycle.  Freeze date files serve as the College's permanent record of information regarding admissions, student enrollment, instructional activity, degree completion, and employees.  Frozen data are used when the College reports information to state, federal and other external agencies, and are particularly important in ensuring accurate comparative and trend analysis.
