Papa Chicken, Your Post inspired me to Google, "Links to Common Data Sets".
That yielded the links I found for this post.

can any one find the CDS for Arcadia University?

kathiep

Wouldn't it be easier to just go to the National Center for educational statictics? http://nces.ed.gov/ipeds/cool/ Just plug in whatever college you want and you'll get their info.

Papa Chicken

kathiep-- yes, perhaps if one wanted only a quick overview of a limited set of data fields. Appears to me that the NCES database uses the latest CDS as their source for their summary data. The CDS has MUCH more info (on undergrad), including the raw numbers and other fields not reported in NCES (e.g., early admit stats), however NCES does have some nice graphs not presented in the CDS (but the numbers are), as well as searchable query function, which is nice.

One area that NCES reports more info than the CDS as it appears to me: Graduate areas, such as grad fields of study. The NCES ties together nicely the undergrad & grad fields of study, particularly if one wants to search out programs.

Also, many of the CDS web sites that are reported on this thread contain a history of CDS submissions, allowing a reader to do some trending, for instance on minority enrollment; I found only the current year in the NCES (perhaps old years are in an archive somewhere?)

Finally, the limited amount of information available on the NCES may be handy if the school does not make public their CDS, as is the case documented through this thread for Harvard, WUSTL, Fordham, and many more. Of course this info may be largely the same as reported on the US News electronic database, but NCES is free.

Response to post #9, re: applicant pool at Harvard: an applicant obviously does not fit the profile of the top 50%, or even even the top 75%, to be admitted-- 25% of those admitted didn't. Applicants should look at the odds realistically and recognize when slim chance is really no chance.
I want to go back and look at the data-- what percent of applicants with perfect SATs were admitted? what percent with 2100?
