Examples
The 4-year Cumulative Graduation % (Rate) for an entering cohort that matriculated in Fall 2012 would be calculated taking the cohort term enrollment (count of all students in the cohort in Fall 2012) and dividing by the cumulative graduation (the count of all students from the cohort that graduated by Spring 2016).
