All links were tested and worked on August 27, 2008
As time goes by the institutions change their websites and move or rename pages. When this happens just search on the College’s Web Site for one of the following: “Common Data Set” or “Institutional Research” to find where they have moved the Common Data Sets.

The link given for Oberlin has some info, but their CDS is at <a href=“http://oberlin.edu/instres/irhome/www/cds/2007/[/url]”>http://oberlin.edu/instres/irhome/www/cds/2007/</a> and there is more interesting stuff at [Institutional</a> Research](<a href=“http://oberlin.edu/instres/irhome/]Institutional”>http://oberlin.edu/instres/irhome/)

Thank you Bass Dad and TokenAdult for contributing the links you found - this link list has grown over the years through the efforts of many people, like Papa Chicken, sharing their discoveries :)

This has been a labor of love and all help and corrections are appreciated.

DunninLA · September 19, 2008, 5:28pm

So let me get this straight… Of the Top 25 or so USNWR universities, the following do NOT report data directly comparable to CDS data?

Duke
Chicago
Johns Hopkins
Wash U St. Louis
Notre Dame
USC

Is that about right? If that is so, how does princetonreview.com get the 25th/75th percentiles on SAT? For example, with Duke the princetonreview.com site (as of March) had Duke at 1380/1570, [Test</a> Prep: GMAT, GRE, LSAT, MCAT, SAT, ACT, and More | The Princeton Review](<a href=“College Advice & Tips | The Princeton Review”>College Advice & Tips | The Princeton Review) while IPEDS currently has it at 1340/1540. [College</a> Navigator - Duke University](<a href=“College Navigator - Search Results”>College Navigator - Duke University) I don’t know the year for Princetonreview, but IPEDS is Fall 2007 admits. The difference between the two is a lot really, 35 points, and it makes me suspicious when I see disparate data, and then notice the schoold doesn’t participate in CDS…

DunninLA · September 19, 2008, 5:42pm

UCLA is a big question –

Princeton review show 1360/1480
IPEDS shows 1180/1400

I’m beginning to think the Princetonreview.com site might have some really currupt data.

richs73cas · September 19, 2008, 9:10pm

We only know they don’t currently post their CDS information on their website that is accessible to the public. They might use the CDS format when reporting to the various publications.

spacekillers · September 20, 2008, 11:50am

thank you!!
very useful for college info
