DAS Website

This NCES website provides public access to education survey data collected by the U.S. Department of Education and to analysis reports about education policy issues. On this website you can

create your own analysis tables and covariance analyses using the Data Analysis Systems (DAS) application,
view/download thousands of analysis tables and the DAS programming files used to create them, and
view the highlights of report findings, with figures and tables, for various topics written by researchers for NCES.

For example, a recent study of undergraduate students in 1999-2000 found that while a majority of undergraduates were younger than 24, one in four were 30 or older. You can

view other findings from this report,
download the complete report,
downloading TPFs used to generate the tables and editing them, and
run the TPFs using DAS Online.

This site was developed by MPR Associates. Please send comments and suggestions to NCES webmaster.
