Required Data Elements to Support the Preparatory Review—California State University, Fresno

The data displays which follow (links in the left navigation bar) are based on the five most recent years for which reliable data is available. California State University, Fresno, is, with Sonoma State University, the first of the CSU campuses to implement the PeopleSoft Student Administration Data System. The campus “went live” with the software at the beginning of the Fall 2002 semester, including the application and admission process for that semester which took place much earlier. That conversion of several unconnected enterprise software systems for such things as student records, financial aid, and accounts receivable into a new quite differently structured single system which is also closely tied to the very recently implemented PeopleSoft Human Resources software, has been quite challenging. The priority given to the needs of Institutional Research as distinct from those of its operational needs and the reporting needs for the Chancellor’s Office has, reasonably enough, not been high.

As a result, while for many years of good data is available for the five years 1998-99 through 2002-03, for some years the displays present data for the five years 19987-88 through 2001-02. These tables will be updated to the more current period as those difficulties are overcome. Other than this transition process into PeopleSoft, there is little about the 2002-03 operations which is qualitatively different from the earlier years and the levels and trends seen in the earlier period should not be expected to be significantly different from those of the later period.
