The purpose of the September 2015 60 Second Survey was to capture a snapshot of if and how institutions apply course repeat practices at the undergraduate and graduate level. The survey introduction acknowledged that institutions often grant exceptions to course repeat policies and practices and that this survey was not meant to capture all of the nuances to policy and practice; rather it was intended to “. . . capture the intent of an institution's policy and how that policy is applied in practice to most students.” 

Unless otherwise noted in a specific report, the AACRAO member institution size, type and control categories are based on the following definitions and sources: 
The enrollment value used to delineate the institution's size category is defined as full-time enrollment plus 1/3 of part-time enrollment and is based on the enrollment reported by the institution to the U.S. Department of Education's National Center for Education Statistics (NCES). 
Institution type and control values are also defined by and verified through NCES criteria.
