Definition Source
"A code that indicates an undergraduate’s status regarding preparedness for college level English and the method by which preparedness was demonstrated by the close of the ERSS processing period for the first term in which the student was enrolled. English Proficiency Status does not apply to transitory students (Enrollment Status equals 6). Data regarding changes in the proficiency of students after census date of their first term of enrollment will be collected separately, beginning with the fall 2000 cohort of regularly- admitted first-time freshmen, to permit more detailed reporting about changes in the proficiency of students, including information about those who leave the university and when changes in proficiency have taken place. The CSU Chancellor’s Office, Division of Analytic Studies, will provide each campus with a cohort data file to which campuses will be expected to append data."[1]
