and PPOHA grantees will input data manually into this section because the data are program-specific. 

2 Each Institutional Profile Table will include a check box that grantees can select if they modified the pre-populated 

IPEDS data. If the check box is selected, a text field pops up that allows grantees to explain why they modified their 

IPEDS data (1,000 word limit). This will then generate a footnote in the PDF of the APR that explains a 

modification was made to pre-populated IPEDS data.
