Understanding the Data in the Groupings

Regional groupings de-duplicate redundant records. For example, a student may attend multiple colleges within a region. In the regional grouping, the student would only appear once. This means that if you added up data for each college within a region, the number of “distinct students” may be lower than the sum of each college’s “distinct students.” However, the figure for course sections will be the same in the regional grouping as the number you would get if you added up the sections for all colleges in the region.
