This report provides information for the Performance Based Funding Model designed by the State University System of Florida Board of Governors. This model includes 10 metrics that evaluate institutions across Florida on a range of standards. Eight of the ten metrics are common to all eleven state institutions; two others are Choice metrics chosen by the Board of Governors and Board of Trustees. 

...

• FTIC Six-Year Graduation Rate: 
  This metric is based on the percentage of first‐time‐in‐college (FTIC) students who started in the Fall (or Summer continuing to Fall) term and graduated from the same institution within six years.
  
  
• Academic Progress Rate [FTIC 2nd Year Retention Rate with At Least a 2.0 GPA]:
  This metric is based on the percentage of first‐time‐in‐college (FTIC) students who started in the Fall (or Summer continuing to Fall) term, were enrolled full‐time in their first semester, were still enrolled in the same institution during the Fall term following their first year, and had a grade point average (GPA) of at least 2.0 at the end of their first year (Fall, Spring, Summer).
  
  
• Percentage of Bachelor's Degrees Awarded within Programs with Strategic Emphasis:
  This metric is based on the number of baccalaureate degrees awarded within the programs designated by the Board of Governors as "Programs of Strategic Emphasis." A student who has multiple majors in the subset of targeted Classification of Instruction Program codes are counted twice (i.e., double‐majors are included).
  
  

• University Access Rate [Percent of Undergraduate with a Pell grant]:

  This metric is based the number of undergraduates enrolled during the Fall term who received a Pell grant during the Fall term. Unclassified students who are not eligible for Pell‐grants are excluded from this metric. 

• Percentage of Graduate Degrees Awarded within Programs with Strategic Emphasis:

  This metric is based on the number of graduate degrees awarded within the programs designated by the Board of Governors as "Programs of Strategic Emphasis." A student who has multiple majors in the subset of targeted Classification of Instruction Program codes are counted twice (i.e., double‐majors are included).

...

• Number of Post-doctoral Appointees: 
  This metric is based on the number of postdoctoral appointees at the beginning of the academic year. A postdoctoral researcher has recently earned a doctoral (or foreign equivalent) degree and has a temporary paid appointment to focus on specialized research/scholarship under the supervision of a senior scholar. (Source: National Science Foundation/National Institutes of Health annual Survey of Graduate Students and Postdoctorates in Science and Engineering (GSS))

This report provides information regarding the standards set by the State University System of Florida Board of Governors for achieving status as a preeminent research university. The standards include 12 metrics that evaluate institutions across Florida. The report lists five of these metrics.

• Public University National Ranking [Top 50 ranking based on BOG's official list of publication] :

  A top‐50 ranking on at least two well‐known and highly respected national public university rankings, reflecting national preeminence, using most recent rankings. The rankings include: Princeton Review, Fiske Guide, QS World University Ranking, Times Higher Education World University Ranking, Academic Ranking of World University, US News and World Report National University, US News and World Report National Public University, US News and World Report Liberal Arts Colleges, Forbes, Kiplinger, Washington Monthly Liberal Arts Colleges, Washington Monthly National University, and Center for Measuring University Performance.
  
  
• Freshman Retention Rate [Full-Time student as reported to IPEDS]: Full-Time, FTIC
  Freshman Retention Rate (full time, FTIC) as reported annually to the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS). The retention rates that are reported in the Board's annual Accountability Report are preliminary, because they are based on student enrollment in their second fall term as reported by the 28th calendar day following the first day of class. When the Board of Governors reports final retention rates to IPEDS in the Spring (usually the first week of April), that data is based on the student enrollment data as reported after the Fall semester has been completed. The preliminary and final retention rates are nearly identical when rounded to the nearest whole number.

• Number of Post-doctoral Appointees:

  The number of Postdoctoral Appointees awarded annually, as reported in the TARU annual report. This data is based on National Science Foundation/National Institutes of Health annual Survey of Graduate Students and Postdoctorates in Science and Engineering (GSS).

Percent of Bachelors Degrees Without Excess Hours
This metric is based on the percentage of baccalaureate degrees awarded within 110% of the credit hours required for a degree based on the Board of Governors Academic Program Inventory. Note: It is important to note that the statutory provisions of the “Excess Hour Surcharge” (1009.286, FS) have been modified several times by the Florida Legislature, resulting in a phased-in approach that has created three different cohorts of students with different requirements. The performance funding metric data is based on the latest statutory requirements that mandates 110% of required hours as the threshold. In accordance with statute, this metric excludes the following types of student credits (ie, accelerated mechanisms, remedial coursework, non-native credit hours that are not used toward the degree, non-native credit hours from failed, incomplete, withdrawn, or repeated courses, credit hours from internship programs, credit hours up to 10 foreign language credit hours, and credit hours earned in military science courses that are part of the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC) program).
