About the Common Data Set
The Common Data Set (CDS) is a collaborative reporting standard developed by colleges, the College Board, Peterson's, and U.S. News. Each year, participating institutions answer the same questionnaire covering admissions selectivity, enrollment composition, financial aid, faculty resources, and student outcomes. Because every school answers in the same format, the CDS lets prospective students compare schools apples-to-apples — without normalizing across different rankings methodologies. CDS Atlas aggregates the most recently published Common Data Set for hundreds of U.S. colleges and universities, with multi-year history where available, side-by-side comparison tools, and federal data (College Scorecard, EADA athletics, Clery campus safety) layered on top.
