UF vs FSU

UF uses average freshman grade data. They just don’t want to publish it. It’s not because it’s too difficult for them. :wink:

The CDS is an effort to standardize such information to allow non-technical consumers (prospective students and their parents) to better compare apples-to-apples and oranges-to-oranges with respect to a university education. It helps these persons cut through sales job hype and see actual value, or as close as can be determined.

Here are a few public universities which publish this data:
Georgia Tech: https://www.irp.gatech.edu/common-data-set
U North Carolina: https://oira.unc.edu/files/2018/06/CDS_2017-2018_20180605.pdf
UC Berkeley: https://opa.berkeley.edu/campus-data/common-data-set
Michigan State: https://opb.msu.edu/functions/institution/cds-2017-20181.pdf
U Michigan: http://obp.umich.edu/wp-content/uploads/pubdata/cds/cds_2017-2018_umaa.pdf
U Georgia: https://oir.uga.edu/_resources/files/cds/UGA_CDS_2017-2018.pdf
U Alabama: http://oira.ua.edu/new/reports/5a6645abd7005c7c3be281b6?Report%20Type[0][0]=Common%20Data%20Set

Were I a UF grad, I’d urge the school to publish a full set of data.
