## PROGRESS OF UNDERPREPARED STUDENTS: This metric measures the percent of underprepared Math/English students who complete a credit bearing course by the end of the fall semester a year after entry. This metric is important because students who are underprepared face more challenges progressing towards degree. NOTE: PRELIMINARY STATEWIDE CO-REQUISITE PILOTS INDICATE SUCCESS RATES OF 70% IN ENGLISH AND 60% IN MATH. ===== PAGE 5 ===== ## OPPORTUNITY • One out of five entering 2016 freshmen had at least one (1) developmental need and more than 100 students had two (2) or more developmental needs. • Low-income students make up 60% of the undergraduate population. • URM students account for 52% of the undergraduate population. • Adult learners are choosing KSU and earning degrees.

DEGREES AWARDED: These metrics measure the number of bachelor's degrees and graduate/professional degrees awarded. This metric is important because Kentucky must increase statewide educational attainment to create a better educated workforce and improve economic opportunity for our citizens. ===== PAGE 15 ===== ## IMPACT

2020-21

To meet the statewide educational attainment goal of 60% by 2030, the number of degrees and credentials produced in Kentucky needs to grow by approximately 8.5% by year 2020-21 (This is a 1.7% avg. annual growth in bachelor's degree production). ===== PAGE 16 ===== ## IMPACT INTERNSHIPS/CO-OPS/CLINICAL EXPERIENCES: This metric measures the percent of students completing a bachelor's degree who completed an internship, co-operative work experience, or clinical learning experience. This metric is important because students who have completed these experiences are more likely to complete their degrees, and increase their employability in the workforce. SUCCESS
