Title
Postsecondary School Locations - Current [National Center for Education Statistics]
Description
The National Center for Education Statistics' (NCES) Education Demographic and Geographic Estimates (EDGE) program develops annually updated point locations (latitude and longitude) for postsecondary institutions included in the NCES Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS). The IPEDS program annually collects information about enrollments, program completions, graduation rates, faculty and staff, finances, institutional prices, and student financial aid from colleges, universities, and technical and vocational institutions that participate in federal student financial aid programs under the Higher Education Act of 1965 (as amended). The NCES EDGE program uses address information reported in the annually updated IPEDS directory file to develop point locations for all institutions reported in IPEDS. The point locations in this data layer represent the most current IPEDS collection available. For more information about NCES school point data, see:https://nces.ed.gov/programs/edge/Geographic/SchoolLocations.Collections are available for the following years:2023-242022-232021-222020-212019-202018-192017-182016-172015-16All information contained in this file is in the public domain.
