Hello. I'm a student at North Carolina State University. I'm trying to get NC State's Wikipedia page to be a featured article. So, I'm studying the articles of some of the universities here that are labeled as "featured articles."
From what I gathered thus far, it seems that in order for a university to be a featured article in Wikipedia, it must have these six things:
- History
- Academics
- Campus
- Student Life
- Athletics
- Alumni
Right now, I'm working on the academics sections. Here are some points that need to be addressed in this section:
- How many undergraduate students are currently enrolled?
- How many graduate and professional students are currently enrolled?
- What are the demographics of the undergraduate population?
- From what regions of the country or world do students come from?
- For the latest applying class for which data is available:
- How many applications were received? - What percentage of the applications were accepted? - What was the average GPA of the incoming class? - What percentage of the incoming class graduated at or near the top of their previous class? - What was the middle fifty percent range of their SAT and ACT scores?
- How tough is it to get into this university? (Try to cite some credible sources within the article here.)
- How many undergraduate schools are there? Name them.
- How many graduate and professional schools are there? Name them.
- Provide scholarship data.
- Does this university practice "need-blind admission"?
- What percentage of the students receive financial aid?
- What is the value of the universities endowment?
- Provide data on any special academic facilities.
