Frequency of Responses: Annually. Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profit; Not-for-profit institutions; State, Local, or Tribal Government, State Education Agencies or Local Educational Agencies. Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 64,800. Total Estimated Annual Burden Hours: 819,932. Abstract: Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) is a system of surveys designed to collect basic data from approximately 7,000 Title IV postsecondary institutions in the United States and other jurisdictions. The IPEDS provides information on numbers of students enrolled, degrees completed, other awards earned, dollars expended, staff employed at postsecondary institutions, and cost and pricing information. The PO 00000 Frm 00014 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 21713 amendments to the Higher Education Act of 1998, Part C, Sec. 131, specify the need for the ‘‘redesign of relevant data systems to improve the usefulness and timeliness of the data collected by such systems.’’ As a consequence, in 2000 IPEDS began to collect data through a Web-based data collection system. The data collection is now entirely Webbased, and is required for those institutions participating in Title IV Federal student aid programs; other institutions participate on a voluntary basis. IPEDS data are available to the public through the College Navigator and IPEDS Data Center Web sites. This clearance package seeks authorization from OMB to continue IPEDS data collection through 2014, describes revisions to the currently approved (2010–11) IPEDS burden estimates, and includes a number of proposed changes to the data collection.
