The Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) is a web-based data collection system
designed to collect basic data from all postsecondary institutions in the United States and the other
jurisdictions. IPEDS enables NCES to report on key dimensions of postsecondary education such as
enrollments, degrees and other awards earned, tuition and fees, average net price, student financial
aid, graduation rates, student outcomes, revenues and expenditures, faculty salaries, staff employed,
and information on academic libraries. The IPEDS web-based data collection system was implemented
in 2000-01. In 2017-18, IPEDS collected data from 6,642 postsecondary institutions in the United
States and the other jurisdictions that are eligible to participate in Title IV Federal financial aid
programs. All Title IV institutions are required to respond to IPEDS (Section 490 of the Higher
Education Amendments of 1992 [P.L. 102-325]). IPEDS allows other (non-title IV) institutions to
participate on a voluntary basis; approximately 200 non-title IV institutions elect to respond each year.
IPEDS data are available to the public through the College Navigator and IPEDS Data Center websites.
IPEDS 2019-22 annual data collection was approved by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB#
1850-0582 v.24) in August 2019 with subsequent revisions in December 2019 and April 2020 (OMB#
1850-0582 v.25-26). This request is to make changes in IPEDS data collection materials so as to clarify
online instructions; to update frequently asked questions and glossary terms; to clarify instructions
related to the coronavirus pandemic; and to provide the final versions of the IPEDS New Keyholder
Handbook 2020-21 and communications for the 2020-21 collection, including coronavirus pandemic
specific communications. This request does not introduce any changes to respondent burden or the
cost to the federal government.
