Common Data Set (CDS)
The Common Data Set (CDS) initiative is a collaborative effort among data providers
in the higher education community and publishers as represented by the College Board,
Peterson's, and U.S. News & World Report. The combined goal of this collaboration
is to improve the quality and accuracy of information provided to all involved in
a student's transition into higher education, as well as to reduce the reporting burden
on data providers.
Data items and definitions used by the U.S. Department of Education in its higher
education surveys often serve as a guide in the continued development of the CDS.
Common Data Set items undergo broad review by the CDS Advisory Board as well as by
data providers representing secondary schools and two- and four-year colleges .
