The Common Data Set (CDS) is a collaborative effort conducted annually to improve the quality and accuracy of information pushed into the public domain and consumed by prospective students. Data are presented in a standardized format following definitions used by the U.S. Department of Education to facilitate in comparing higher education institutions.

The CDS is divided into sections pertaining to the following subjects: General Information; Enrollment and Persistence; Admissions, Academic Offerings and Policies; Student Life; Annual Expenses; Financial Aid; Instructional Faculty and Class Size; and Degrees Conferred.
