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 the National
Center for Education Statistics (NCES) to report on key dimensions of postsecondary education such as student enrollment,
degrees and other awards earned, tuition and fees, average net price, student financial aid, graduation rates, revenues and
expenditures, faculty salaries, staff employed, and information on academic libraries. The IPEDS web-based data collection
system was implemented in 2000-01 and collects basic data from approximately 6,600 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 (HEA, P.L.
102-325)). IPEDS allows other (non-title IV) institutions to participate on a voluntary basis. Approximately 200 institutions
elect to respond. IPEDS data are available to the public through the IPEDS website.
IPEDS 2019-20 through 2021-22 annual data collection was approved by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in
July 2019 (OMB# 1850-0582 v.24), with subsequent revisions approved in December 2019, April 2020, July 2020, and July
2021 (OMB# 1850-0582 v.25-28).This request is to make changes in IPEDS data collection materials to clarify in the
instructions appropriate reporting of the Acts under the Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund (HEERF). Originally, all
funds were passed under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act and were added as a subject of
IPEDS data collections in July 2020 (OMB# 1850-0582 v.27). Since that time, two additional Acts have been passed under
HEERF – the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act (CRRSAA) and the American Rescue Plan
(ARP). The language regarding CARES needs to be updated to indicate all acts passed under HEERF. These changes affect
the following three survey forms: Student Financial Aid, Finance, and Academic Libraries.
This request does not introduce any changes to respondent burden or the cost to the federal government.
