As a participant in federal student financial aid programs, the University is obligated to collect and provide certain information about our students. Some of that information can be found in the annual University Fact Book, including student headcounts by classification (undergraduate vs. graduate and full-time vs. part-time), degree-seeking status, gender, ethnicity, age and place of origin (Illinois, out-of-state and out-of-country). The Fact Book also contains information on class section enrollment and program popularity among undergraduate and graduate students, but primarily serves as a snapshot of Benedictine's student diversity.
