Okay, this is a real stupid question but I am having brain lock on this. The students that were accepted into the class of 2013 at a particular college, the ones going to school this fall, will they be listed under the 2008-2009 data? I just want to get the most current data. Thanks!

No, the Common Data Set 2008-09 includes data about degree-seeking, first-time, first-year students who applied, were admitted, and enrolled (full- or part-time) in the fall of
2008. That means the Class of 2012. This is the same data that will be used by U.S. News in its 2010 edition of America's Best Colleges.
The America's Best Colleges 2009 edition rankings went live on August 22, 2008 and covered the Class of 2011.
For the Class of 2013, you will need the Common Data Set 2009-10 and the US News' America's Best Colleges 2011 edition to be published in the summer of 2010.
Confused enough?
