Postsecondary Student Unit Record Systems (PSURSs) Data Elements
State agencies are collecting a variety of data elements from a variety of institutional types. In Strong Foundations 2025, SHEEO asked what data elements states collected from the following sectors: less-than 2-year (new to 2025), two-year, four-year, independent (private, non-profit), proprietary (private, for-profit), tribal, and other institutions. For more on data elements collected by each state over time, see the Longitudinal Dashboard (2010-2025 Elements).
THEC has developed a process to revise its data collection process collaboratively with data providers and our primary internal & external data consumers. Strong Foundations is a great resource for getting a quick comparison of which other states actively collect the data we are interested in.
