Dear Colleague:

The Ferris State University Fact Book is an annual project conducted as a service to the university community by the Office of Institutional Research and Testing, in the Division of Student Affairs. This 21st edition is a document designed to answer the most frequently asked questions about Ferris State University.

New additions to this year’s Fact Book include a map with enrollment by state on page 37, a list of enrollment by counties on page 38, and term‐to‐term FTIAC retention by college on page 72.

To access the current Fact Book, as well as previous editions on the Ferris State University website, go to www.ferris.edu and click on the “More Quick Links” box and select “Inst. Research/Testing.” Under the Institutional Research heading select “Fact Book Downloads.” As an alternative, you can simply type in the words “Fact Book” in the search box located on the Ferris homepage.

We would like to thank the many offices that assist us with the development of the information for the Fact Book. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or have ideas for future editions of the Fact Book.
