Graduation Rates for 4-year institutions reporting on a fall cohort

Welcome to the IPEDS Graduation Rates (GR) survey component. The GR component collects data on the cohort of full-time, first-time degree/certificate-seeking undergraduate students and tracks their completion status at 150% of the normal time to complete all requirements of their program of study. This information is collected to assist institutions in complying with the requirements of the Student Right-to-Know Act.

Reporting Documentation

Submission Year	Reporting Criteria	Type
2022-23	The following changes were implemented for the 2022-23 data collection period: The "Nonresident alien" category has been changed to 'U.S. Nonresident’ but should include the same students. A gender question has been added at the end of the collection 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 category throughout the rest of the survey component at this time. An FAQ (#7) has been added to clarify where to report undocumented and DACA students in race/ethnicity categories. Change the term ‘summer term’ to ‘summer session’ throughout the instructions and FAQs.	Change
