Peer Analysis System (PAS)
Dataset Cutting Tool (DCT)
The system provides a variety of analytical features for peer analysis. This includes the ability to create new calculated variables, to sort and rank schools based on the data items selected, and to view standard report templates.

To use the PAS, you must first select a Focus institution to use as the basis for your analysis. Enter either the name of the institution (or a keyword in the name) OR enter the UnitID (do not enter both).

      This tool allows users to download IPEDS data to use with software packages for analysis and comparisons. Use the DCT to obtain complete data files and codes or to create customized datasets according to your specifications.
Users may select their schools of interest with the DCT or may upload a list previously created in the PAS.

The DCT provides customized data element dictionaries, special data files, and programs that read the data into SAS, SPSS, STATA, and spreadsheet formats. These files are zipped for quicker downloading. It is not intended for providing tables of data for estimates.
