    Common Data Set
 

    The Common Data Set (CDS) initiative began in 1995 to address issues

    about inconsistencies in data provided by institutions to guidebooks and

    financial rating agencies.  The initiative have evolved into a collaborative

    effort between publishers (primarily The College Board, Peterson's, and

    U.S. News & World Report) and the educational community to improve the

    quality and consistency of information reported by college and university

    officials and to reduce the burden of compiling such information which is

    used in guidebooks, publications, and other media.

    The goal of the CDS is to develop standard and precise questions along  

    with data definitions that will incorporated into participating publishers'

    existing surveys, which will continue to be the primary data collections

    instruments.  The established common definitions should enable

    institutions to depict themselves consistently, correctly, and without bias to

    the public.
