Introduction

The Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) collects institution-level data
from postsecondary institutions in the United States (50 states and the District of Columbia) and
other U.S. jurisdictions (see appendix A for a list of other U.S. jurisdictions). This First Look
presents findings from the provisional data of the IPEDS spring! 2014 data collection, which
included three survey components: Enrollment at postsecondary institutions during fall 2013;
Finance, for the 2013 fiscal year; and Human Resources at postsecondary institutions during fall
2013. Data for all components were collected through the IPEDS web-based data collection
system. Detailed information about the study methodology can be found at
http://nces.ed.gov/pubsearch/pubsinfo.asp? pubid=20 14067.

This First Look provides users with an opportunity to access fully reviewed, edited, and imputed
IPEDS data. Final data, including revisions to the provisional data submitted by institutions after
the close of data collection, will be available during the following collection year (2014-15).

The purpose of this report is to introduce new data through the presentation of tables containing
descriptive information. Selected findings have been chosen to demonstrate the range of
information available when using the IPEDS data rather than to discuss all of the observed
differences. They are not meant to emphasize any particular issue. Not all data collected during
the spring 2014 collection are displayed in this First Look, however, all data from the spring
2014 collection are publicly available through the IPEDS Data Center, found at
http://nces.ed.gov/ipeds/datacenter.

IPEDS 2013-14

Participation in IPEDS was required for institutions and administrative offices that participated
in Title IV federal student financial aid programs such as Federal Pell Grants or Federal Stafford
Loans during the 2013-14 academic year.” A total of 7,397 institutions and 79 administrative
offices (central or system offices) in the United States and other U.S. jurisdictions were expected
to participate in the spring collection. Tables in this report focus on the 7,236 institutions and 76
administrative offices in the United States and exclude Title IV entities* in other U.S
jurisdictions; however, data from institutions and administrative offices in both the United States
and other U.S. jurisdictions are available for download

Detailed definitions of terms used in this report are available in the glossary (appendix B).

' The spring 2013 data collection cycle included the Graduation Rates and Graduation Rates components; however,
these survey components have been moved to the winter data collection beginning in 2013-14.

? Institutions participating in Title IV programs are accredited by an agency or organization recognized by the
Secretary of the U.S. Department of Education, have a program of more than 300 clock hours or 8 credit hours, have
been in business for at least 2 years, and have a signed Program Participation Agreement with the Office of
Postsecondary Education, U.S. Department of Education.

* Throughout this publication, the term “entity” refers to both institutions and administrative offices.


Program Participation Agreement (PPA): A written agreement between a postsecondary
institution and the Secretary of Education. This agreement allows institutions to participate in any of
the Title IV student assistance programs other than the State Student Incentive Grant (SSIG) and the
National Early Intervention Scholarship and Partnership (NEISP) programs. The PPA conditions the
initial and continued participation of an eligible institution in any Title IV program upon compliance
with the General Provisions regulations, the individual program regulations, and any additional
conditions specified in the program participation agreement that the Department of Education
requires the institution to meet. Institutions with such an agreement are referred to as Title [V
institutions.

programs of less than 2 years: Programs requiring less than 2 years of full-time-equivalent college-
level work (4 semesters or 6 quarters) or less than 1,800 contact hours to obtain a degree, diploma, or
certificate.

public institution: An educational institution whose programs and activities are operated by publicly
elected or appointed school officials and which is supported largely by public funds.

race/ethnicity: Categories developed in 1997 by the Office of Management and Budget that are used
to describe groups to which individuals belong or identify with. The categories do not denote
scientific definitions of anthropological origins. The designations are used to categorize U.S. citizens,
resident aliens, and other eligible noncitizens.

Individuals are asked to first designate ethnicity as:
e Hispanic or Latino or
¢ Not Hispanic or Latino

Second, individuals are asked to indicate all races that apply among the following:
e American Indian or Alaska Native

Asian

Black or African American

Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander

White

For reporting purposes, students that identify with more than one race are included in the Two or
more races category

resident alien (and other eligible noncitizens): A person who is not a citizen or national of the
United States but who has been admitted as a legal immigrant for the purpose of obtaining permanent
resident alien status and who holds one of the following: an alien registration card (Form 1-551 or I-
151), a Temporary Resident Card (Form I-688), or an Arrival-Departure Record (Form I-94) with a
notation that conveys legal immigrant status such as Section 207 Refugee, Section 208 Asylee,
Conditional Entrant Parolee, or Cuban-Haitian.

sales and related occupations: An occupational category based on the major group Sales and
Related Occupations in the 2010 Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) Manual
(http://www.bls.gov/soc/2010/soc410000.htm).

sector: One of nine institutional categories resulting from dividing the universe according to control
and level. Control categories are public, private nonprofit, and private for-profit. Level categories are
4 years and higher (4-year), at least 2 but less than 4 years (2-year), and less than 2 years (less-than-
2-year). For example: public 4-year institutions.

Selected Findings

Characteristics of Enrolled Students

e In fall 2013, Title IV institutions enrolled approximately 17.9 million undergraduate and
about 2.9 million graduate students (table 1). Of the approximately 17.9 million
undergraduates, about 59 percent were enrolled in 4-year institutions, nearly 40 percent in 2-
year institutions, and nearly 2 percent in less-than-2-year institutions

Revenues and Expenses of Title IV Entities

e In fiscal year 2013, public 4-year institutions and administrative offices received about 21
percent of their revenues from tuition and fees, compared with just over 32 percent at private
nonprofit entities and nearly 91 percent at private for-profit entities (table 2)

e During the same period, about 29 percent of expenses at public 4-year entities were for
instruction, compared with approximately 43 percent at public 2-year entities and nearly 50
percent at public less-than-2-year entities (table 2).

Employees in Postsecondary Institutions

¢ Title IV institutions and administrative offices reported employing approximately 4.0 million
individuals in fall 2013 (table 3). Of the 4.0 million individuals, about 2.5 million were
employed full-time and about 1.4 million were employed part-time.


Fall Enrollment

The 2014 Fall Enrollment component collected student enrollment data for fall 2013. Data were
collected on the race/ethnicity and gender of students, attendance status, and student level
(undergraduate or graduate). Institutions were also required to report data by student age, while
state of residency reporting was optional. In addition, data were collected on the number of
students enrolled exclusively in distance education courses, in any distance education courses, or
in no distance education courses. These data were reported by student level, undergraduate
degree-seeking status, and student residence location (i.e., in the same state or jurisdiction as the
institution; in a different state or jurisdiction as the institution; outside the United States; or
unknown). Retention rates and student-faculty ratios were also collected via the Fall Enrollment
component.

Finance

The 2014 Finance component collected financial statistics, such as institutional revenues and
expenses, for the most recent fiscal year ending prior to October 2013 (fiscal year 2013). The
Finance component is designed to follow the format of institutional financial statements
suggested by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the Governmental
Accounting Standards Board (GASB). Most public institutions and administrative offices follow
GASB standards.° While the figures in this report for public entities only include those entities
following GASB standards, aggregate totals for public entities using FASB standards are
included in table footnotes. All private entities use FASB standards.

Human Resources

The Human Resources (HR) component of IPEDS collected data on the number of staff on the
institution’s payroll as of November 1, 2013. Institutions were required to report staff counts by
employment status (full- or part-time), occupational category, race/ethnicity, and gender.
Degree-granting institutions with 15 or more full-time staff are also required to report staff
counts by faculty status. In addition to counts of staff, the HR component collects salary
information for full-time staff.

During collections that start in an odd-numbered year, such as this year (2013-14), the reporting
of data by race/ethnicity and gender is required, while during collections that start in an even-
numbered year (e.g., 2014-15), the reporting of these data is optional

* For institutions using traditional academic year calendars, fall 2013 is defined as either the institution’s fall
reporting date or as of October 15, 2013. For institutions using nontraditional academic calendars, fall 2013 is
defined as the period between August 1 and October 31, 2013.

* Ninety-nine percent of public institutions used GASB, and | percent used FASB.


full-time student: Undergraduate—A student enrolled for 12 or more semester credits, or 12 or
more quarter credits, or 24 or more contact hours a week each term. Graduate—A student enrolled
for 9 or more semester credits, or 9 or more quarter credits, or a student involved in thesis or
dissertation preparation that is considered full-time by the institution.

Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB): The GASB establishes accounting
standards for local and state entities including governmental colleges and universities

government appropriations (revenues): Revenues received by an institution through acts of a
legislative body, except grants and contracts. These funds are for meeting current operating expenses
and not for specific projects or programs. The most common example is a state’s general
appropriation. Appropriations primarily to fund capital assets are classified as capital appropriations.

government grants: Transfers of money or property from a government agency to the education
institution without a requirement to receive anything in return. These grants may take the form of
grants to the institutions to undertake research or they may be in the form of student financial aid.
(Used for reporting on the Finance component.)

graduate assistants (teaching): An occupational category based on the detailed occupation Graduate
Assistant - Teaching (SOC code 25-1191) in the 2010 Standard Occupational Classification (SOC)
Manual (http:// www.bls.gov/soc/2010/soe251191.htm).

graduate student: A student who holds a bachelor’s degree, or equivalent, and is taking courses at
the postbaccalaureate level. These students may or may not be enrolled in graduate programs.

healthcare practitioners and technical occupations: An occupational category based on the major
group Healthcare Practitioners and Technical Occupations in the 2010 Standard Occupational
Classification (SOC) Manual (http://www.bls.gov/soc/2010/soc290000.htm).

level of institution: A classification of whether an institution’s programs are 4 years or more (4-
year), at least 2 but less than 4 years (2-year), or less than 2 years (less-than-2-year).

librarians, curators, and archivists: An occupational category based on the following three broad

were greater than 99.9 percent for each survey component, no such analysis was necessary.
However, data from one institution that responded to the HR component and two institutions
from the EF component contained item nonresponse, and these missing items were imputed.
Four institutions that were expected to respond to the HR component, five institutions that were
expected to respond to the EF component, and seven institutions that were expected to respond to
the Finance component had all data imputed due to unit nonresponse. Detailed information about
the study methodology including imputation procedures can be found at

Appendix A:
Data Collection Procedures

The spring 2014 collection was entirely web-based; data were collected between December 11,
2013, and April 9, 2014. Data were provided by “keyholders,” institutional representatives
appointed by campus chief executives, who were responsible for ensuring that survey data
submitted by the institution were correct and complete. No problems were noted during the
spring 2014 data collection. During the collection period, the Integrated Postsecondary
Education Data System (IPEDS) help desk was available to assist respondents with reporting the
necessary data.

The IPEDS universe is established during the fall collection period. There were 7,477 Title IV
institutions and administrative offices! located in the United States and the other jurisdictions of
the United States, such as Puerto Rico,” in the 2013-14 academic year. Though they are not

Title IV eligible, four of the U.S. service academies are included in the IPEDS universe as if they
were Title IV institutions since they are federally funded and open to the public.> Data for all
five institutions are included in the tables and counts of institutions unless otherwise indicated

Because Title IV institutions are the primary focus of IPEDS and they are required to respond,
response rates for Title IV institutions in the spring 2014 IPEDS collection were high. The Fall
Enrollment (EF) component response rate among all eligible Title IV institutions was 99.9
percent (7,385 institutions responded).* For the Finance component, the response rate was 99.9
percent (7,452 Title IV entities responded).” The HR component response rate among all Title IV
entities was 99.9 percent (7,461 Title IV entities responded).°

The National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) statistical standards require that the
potential for nonresponse bias for all institutions (including those in other U.S. jurisdictions) is
analyzed for sectors for which the response rate is less than 85 percent. Because response rates

' Title IV institutions and administrative offices include 7,397 institutions and 80 administrative (central or system)
offices. The central and system offices are required to complete the Institutional Characteristics component in the
fall, the Human Resources (HR) component in the spring, and the Finance component in the spring (if they have
their own separate budget).

> The other U.S jurisdictions surveyed in IPEDS are American Samoa, the Federated States of Micronesia, Guam,
the Marshall Islands, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Palau, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin
Islands.

> The four U.S. service academies that are not Title IV eligible are the U.S. Naval Academy, the U.S. Military
Academy, the U.S. Coast Guard Academy, and the U.S. Air Force Academy. The U.S. Merchant Marine Academy
is Title IV eligible.

* Seven Title IV institutions that were included in the IPEDS universe were not required to respond to the EF
component because the institutions either closed or did not enroll students during the fall; hence, a total of 7,390
institutions were expected to respond

* Seventeen Title IV institutions and one administrative office that were included in the IPEDS universe were not
required to respond to the Finance component because the institutions were not in operation during the 2013 fiscal
year; hence, a total of 7,459 institutions and administrative offices were expected to respond to the Finance
component.

° Eleven Title IV institutions and one administrative office that were included in the IPEDS universe were not
required to respond to the HR component because they were closed or had no employees as of November 1, 2013;
hence, a total of 7,465 institutions and administrative offices were expected to respond
