The Fall Enrollment component collects student enrollment counts by level of student, enrollment status, gender and race/ethnicity. In addition, first-time student retention rates and the student-to-faculty ratio are collected. Enrollment by age is required in odd-numbered years, and enrollment by residence of first-time undergraduates is required in even-numbered years.

Institutions operating on a traditional academic year calendar (semester, trimester, quarter, or 4-1-4) report Fall enrollment as of the institution's official fall reporting date or October 15. Institutions operating on a calendar that differs by program or that enrolls students on a continuous basis (referred to as program reporters) report Fall enrollment as students enrolled any time during the period August 1 and October 31.

2022-23

The following changes were implemented for the 2022-23 data collection period:
The "Nonresident alien” terminology has been changed to “U.S. Nonresident” but should include the same category of students.
A question about gender has been added after Part A – Fall Enrollment Summary to collect information about students for whom gender does not fit the binary gender (Men/Women) categories provided.
Institutions should still allocate those students to the Men/Women categories in other screens of the survey component at this time. New FAQs have been added to help institutions with this reporting.
References to summer term were changed to summer session.
FAQ #8 on consistent reporting of EF, E12, and OM has been updated for clarification.

Change 

2020-21

Report data to accurately reflect the time period corresponding with the IPEDS survey component, even if such reporting is seemingly inconsistent with prior- year reporting. For example, if a summer term began later than usual due to Coronavirus Pandemic postponements, continue to report using the timeframes as defined in the IPEDS instructions. NCES expects that some data reported during the 2020-21 data collection year will vary from established prior trends due to the impacts of Coronavirus Pandemic. If an error edit is triggered even when submitting accurate data, please indicate in the corresponding context box or verbally to the Help Desk that the seemingly inconsistent data are accurate and reflect the effects of Coronavirus Pandemic.

Part B, Enrollment of students by age, is optional this year.
Part C, Residence of first-time degree/certificate-seeking undergraduates, is
required this year.
