IPEDS Data Feedback Reports

Data Feedback Reports (DFR) are intended to provide institutions some context for examining the data they submit each year to IPEDS.

The figures in every DFR offer a selection of IPEDS indicators allowing for a direct comparison of EWU to the characteristics of a group of similar institutions called Peer Institutes.

The comparison characteristics are based on similar Carnegie Classification of Master’s Colleges & Universities (Larger Programs), Control of Institution (Public), and enrollment sizes.

Note: DFR years represent the Fall in which they were published by IPEDS. All data highlighted in DFR’s are sourced with the time-period they represent.
