This Week In IPEDS (TWII)

2016 Data Feedback Report Update

The release of the 2016 Data Feedback Report (DFR) is now estimated to be in January 2017. The 2016 Data Feedback Reports are based on the data collected during the 2015-16 IPEDS collection cycle and are the most recent data available. However, the 2015-16 data has yet to be released to the public. Upon release of the 2015-16 data, we will release the 2016 Data Feedback Reports to institutional keyholders, coordinators, and CEOs (Note: CEOs will receive the report two weeks after keyholders and coordinators).

As a reminder, the Data Feedback Report is intended to provide institutions a context for examining the data they submitted to IPEDS. The purpose of this report is to provide institutional executives a useful resource and to help improve the quality and comparability of IPEDS data. If there are any questions, please contact the IPEDS Data Feedback Report team at ipedsdatafeedback@ed.gov or the IPEDS Help Desk.
