Course Selection of First Time Freshmen

Ever wonder which courses our freshmen enroll in the most during their first year at OU?  They’re sure to be general education courses, right?  Yes, they are!  But interestingly, even the most widely enrolled in courses are done so by less than half of the first time freshmen population.

In both 2014-15 and 2015-16, we saw the largest freshmen enrollment in ENGL1113 & ENGL1213, as well as UCOL1002 and CHEM1315. Approximately 30-40% of the first time freshman class enrolled in these early general education courses.

Let’s get this blog started!

Thanks for checking out IRR’s new blog. We’ve started this as part of our continuing efforts to better communicate with the OU user community. Posts to this blog will be answers to frequently asked questions, as well as more in-depth explanations of often misunderstood reporting definitions or conventions.

We want your input, and we want your questions! If there’s something you’d like us to explain, or a discussion on a reporting topic that you’d like have, please let us know by making a suggestion in the comments section here, in a tweet tagging @ou_irr, or in an email to irr@ou.edu.
