Common Data Set

The Common Data Set is a standard set of questions and data definitions developed in a collaborative effort among data providers in the higher education community and publishers as represented by the College Board, Peterson's, part of The Thomson Corporation, and U.S. News & World Report for use in leading guidebooks, rankings, and resources.  The Common Data Set includes standardized questions about a college's academic offerings, enrollment, admission requirements, expenses, and freshman class profile.
