3Transfer students also participate in Boiler Gold Rush. A total of 318 transfers participated (25.4% of the Transfer Class). The number above reflects only the the number of first-year students participating in BGR. A total of 5,299 students partcipated in BGR, representing 71.4% of all new Purdue students in Fall 2009.
4Total Participation is based on the filled spaces associated with Learning Community offerings. In some cases, students take part in more than one Learning Community. When calculating the percent of the first-year class involved, the number of unique students is used as opposed to the total participation number.
5Residential Learning Communities include a residential component in addition to or in lieu of course clusters. Examples include the Earhart Residential Communities associated with the Women in Science and Engineering Programs and the Honors Engineering Learning Community.
