Abstract | The Survey of Institutional Characteristics of the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) collects the basic data that describe the universe of postsecondary institutions in the United States and its outlying areas. Data are collected annually on three different forms; appendix B of this documentation describes the use of these forms. The data from the 10,074 reporting schools are used for sample design and selection for other IPEDS studies and other postsecondary data collection activities. Data elements for the file include: (1) the name, address, and telephone number of each school; (2) numeric identifiers that can link this survey to other IPEDS surveys; (3) data pertaining to the highest level of programs offered; (4) data on institutional control; (5) school calendar system; (6) admissions requirements; (7) student services; and (8) student charges. Fall enrollment data were collected for some schools. The documentation for the data file includes a survey summary and file description, with two descriptive appendices. File codes are listed, and data element descriptions and alphabetic list of variables are included. Some general information on the IPEDS is also provided. (SLD) |
