The College of Charleston’s Planning and Reference Fact Book is the annual publication of the Office of Institutional Research, providing facts and figures of our institution from the past and prior academic years. We value the importance of providing information to support data-informed decision-making and the planning, budgeting, institutional effectiveness, compliance and policy-making activities of the institution.

The Fact Book is evidence of the combined efforts of many areas on campus coming together to provide the same quality of information as when this publication began in 1996. Quantities of printed copies are limited. We encourage users to consume the reports virtually and to print double-sided when needed.

In closing, we hope the Fact Book fills all of your information needs, and where it does not, please reach out to our web site (http://institutional-research.cofc.edu) or contact us directly ([email protected]).
