CORE The EDUCAUSE Core Data Service Trends Almanac
DATA A l l B a c h e l o r ’ s I n s t i t u t i o n s
Since 2002, institutions have been invited annually to contribute data to the EDUCAUSE Core Data Service (CDS). This
SERVICE
almanac summarizes CDS trend data from the 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2014 surveys for a subset of responding institutions.
Some publicly available data from the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS, www.nces.ed.gov/ipeds/)
are used in calculating metrics. Reported statistics are either an estimated proportion of the population or an estimated
median (rather than a mean). CDS participants can access data at www.educause.edu/coredata; nonparticipants can access
other CDS resources at this site.
