[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]   Strong words, backed up by nonsense numbers. Per Bing's CDS -- chrome-extension://efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj/https://www.binghamton.edu/offices/oir/upload_data/cds_2021_2022.pdf -- only 7% of undergrads are OOS. I haven't checked the other CDSes, but anyone who wants to can find actual data in them (in F1)...  [/quote]

Here's a clue, rocket scientist -- international students aren't from New York State either.

First, international students are excluded from both the numerator and the denominator when calculating OOS percentages at all universities. The 7% OOS figure is the one that allows for apples-to-apples comparisons with other schools' OOS figures (the SUNY schools don't get to puff their numbers, as you're trying to do, by including internationals when everyone else excludes them).

Second, your "collegefactual" cite is spouting nonsense. The CDS includes actual nonresident alien numbers, too, in section B2. At Bing, it's 575 out of 14,307, or 4%. (No rocket science required.)[/quote]
