dfw rate (CourseDFW.dfwRate) is a field stored on each course dfw record in Chalk, the higher-education academic operations platform for curriculum, assessment, faculty, scheduling, accreditation, and budget. It holds a Float value and is part of the course dfw record's data. The dfwRate field belongs to the course dfw it is recorded on, so faculty, staff, and automations read or set dfwRate while working with that CourseDFW record. Because dfwRate is part of the CourseDFW record, it stays consistent with the rest of that record's data and is scoped to the tenant that owns the course dfw.
