To align to the SCFF definition for completion, the student has to be enrolled in the selected year at any college in the district.
For FY2019-20 SCFF, if a student earns multiple awards in a year, that student is only counted once for the attainment of the highest level of award, which is considered to be an associate degree for transfer. Therefore, the student count for this metric will NOT match with SCFF counts if there are students who are excluded from this category because they earned award in higher levels.
