When does the common data set come out?
The Common Data Set (CDS) is a compendium of institutional facts commonly requested by and found in college guide publications. This information is voluntarily provided by many colleges and universities each year. New Common Data Sets are typically posted in December.
Is the CDs a reliable source of trend data?
Although we provide a comprehensive archive of Williams’ Common Data Sets online, keep in mind that there have been methodological and definitional changes over the years that make the CDS a somewhat unreliable source for generating comparable trend datasets.
How is the CD used in college rankings?
Providing a basis for surveys of college and universities, the CDS is used in many publications and rankings, including Peterson’s Guide, publications from The College Board, and the U. S. News and World Report “America’s Best Colleges” guide.
