Overview
Institutional Characteristics Header Overview
 Welcome to the new Institutional Characteristics Header survey component (IC Header). This survey was introduced to collect data that are key to reporting throughout the IPEDS data collection, and must be completed and locked before any other survey can be started.

Some IC Header questions may require nothing more than a confirmation, if nothing has changed. Please make changes as necessary, and complete items that do need a response (enrollment questions).

Remember, it is the responsibility of the keyholder to provide NCES with accurate data about the institution. Please never hesitate to call the IPEDS Help Desk at 1-877-225-2568 and ask for help to make sure that you are reporting correctly!		 
  
 Because of the importance of the IC Header data in determining the screens you will receive in other surveys, be sure to report correctly, and to contact the IPEDS Help Desk if you have any questions about what you need to report. 
   
 The IC Header data affect other survey components in the following ways:
  • The Educational Offerings question verifies your institution's inclusion in IPEDS.
  • The Control and Levels page is key to all survey components, especially to Finance (F) and Graduation Rates (GRS). Additionally, this is important information for students, impacts many federal reports, and will be used in placing institutions in appropriate net price groupings.
  • Calendar system selection impacts student charges data reported in Institutional Characteristics (IC), GRS data, and Student Financial Aid (SFA) data related to the net price calculation.
  • Enrollment levels impact student charges in IC and enrollment categories in the Fall Enrollment (EF) survey component.
  • The operations question for new institutions determines reporting of 12-month enrollment (E12).

Part B - Organization - Control and Level
1. What is your institutional control or affiliation?
Be sure to select the correct control for your institution. Errors on this question have an impact throughout the IPEDS surveys, in federal reporting, in net price groupings, and on your institutions appearance to students. If you reported incorrectly in a previous year, please contact the Help Desk at 877.225.2568 to correct the error.

2. What award levels are offered by your institution? [Check all that apply]
When reporting award levels for sub baccalaureate certificates (levels 1, 2, and 4), determine program length by the number of credit or contact hours, NOT the academic year length in parentheses. The academic year length is meant only to provide context.

The 'Other' award level should not be used unless your program truly does not fit any of the other award levels. We expect very few institutions to fit the 'Other' category.

Summary

Institutional Characteristics Header Component Summary

IPEDS collects important information regarding your institution. All data reported in IPEDS survey components become available in the IPEDS Data Center and appear as aggregated data in various Department of Education reports. Additionally, some of the reported data appears specifically for your institution through the College Navigator website and is included in your institution’s Data Feedback Report (DFR). The purpose of this summary is to provide you an opportunity to view some of the data that, when accepted through the IPEDS quality control process, will appear on the College Navigator website and/or your DFR. College Navigator is updated approximately three months after the data collection period closes and Data Feedback Reports will be available through the ExPT and sent to your institution’s CEO in November 2011.
