  8. LOOKING UP AN INSTITUTION IN IPEDS • Go to: http://nces.ed.gov/ipeds/

  9. Then, click on: Data & Tools; then Peer Comparison Tools

  10. Then select IPEDS Data Center

  11. Select Look Up An Institution

  12. You have the option of three data sources: • Use provisional release data • Use final release data • Preliminary release data

  13. PROVISIONAL RELEASE DATA: Provisional release data are the data that were reported to NCES in the original data collection and underwent all NCES data quality control procedures, including imputation. Institutions may have updated these data in the subsequent data collection year, however updates are not reflected in these data. • FINAL RELEASE DATA: Final release data include revisions to the provisional release data that have been made by institutions during the subsequent data collection year. The final release data can be used when the most up to date data are required; however, these data may not match tables from the First Look reports based on preliminary and provisional data. • PRELIMINARY RELEASE DATA: Preliminary release data have been edited but are subject to further NCES quality control procedures. Imputed data for non-responding institutions are not included. These data are used for First Look (Preliminary Data) publications. Years in parentheses indicate the most recent data year available.

  14. In “Institution Name”, type the college/university in which you are interested

  15. You are now ready to select your variables of interest….but just what are your choices??

  16. Do any of these categories look familiar?

  17. OK, let’s build a report……but before we do, some key points, or what I like to call…”IR lessons learned the hard way!” • Know what you are looking and asking for! • Know how the database you are using defines variables! • Know the timeframe of the data • When presenting your report, ALWAYS cite your source of data…and include definitions if needed!!
