* January 2012
In compliance with KRS 164.250, I am pleased to provide you with the 2011-2012 Fact Booklet, a collection of current
facts and statistics about people and programs at the University of Kentucky. Many items in this booklet are of interest
to our stakeholders and the general public, including statistics on enrollments, retention, research expenditures, and
faculty salaries. A summary of the 2011-2012 Operating and Capital Budget is also included in this electronic publication.
The University of Kentucky had a banner year with the fourth consecutive year of increased enrollment and second
consecutive year of record enrollments. Over 28,000 students were enrolled at the University, including historically
high numbers of undergraduates and doctoral students enrolled in professional practice programs. UK also attracted
record numbers of African-Americans and international students enrolled in undergraduate programs. Hispanic students have doubled since 2006 and our total population of international students has tripled in that time.
We received a record number of applications, more than 15,000, for admission to the fall 2011 semester – a 12
percent increase over the previous year. Over the last several years, we have increased the size of our undergraduate
student population while attracting more talented first-year students. The fall 2011 freshman class set two new UK
records by presenting a 3.63 high school GPA and average ACT composite score of 25.4. The fall-to-fall retention rate
of the previous freshman class surpassed 80 percent for the fourth year in a row.

* The University of Kentucky’s mission is based on a profoundly important idea that a nationally and internationally
renowned university can be the catalyst for change and growth in the 21st century. That mission – our promise to
Kentucky – has never been more vital. As Kentucky’s flagship, land grant research university, we remain steadfast
in our effort to find creative solutions to complex challenges; to provide the best education to our students; to
create a campus culture that is responsive and supportive of our faculty and staff; and to uplift people and communities across the Commonwealth.
As we continue our ascent, we hope to build a better University of Kentucky, and through it, a better future for
our state.

Sincerely,

Eli Capilouto
President

FTE calculations have been revised in accordance with CPE
guidelines. The new method uses a formula that weights the
number of student credit hours by students’ degree level.
*Note: Beginning in 2009-10, federal reporting guidelines for
enrollments eliminated the first-professional degree category
and established a new Doctor’s Degree - Professional Practice
category. These degree programs are now subsumed under the
graduate classification.
