Section 490 of the Higher Education Amendments of 1992 (P.L. 102-325) requires that “institutions will complete surveys conducted as part of the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS)…in a timely manner and to the satisfaction of the Secretary”. Thus, reporting to IPEDS is mandatory for institutions that participate in or are applicants for participation in any Federal financial assistance program authorized by Title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended (20 USC 1094(a)(17)).

Undocumented Student Field New Field 122 76 Is the student an undocumented student or undocumented resident? An undocumented student is a foreign national who: (1) entered the United States without inspection or with fraudulent documents; (2) entered legally as a nonimmigrant but then violated the terms of his or her status and remained in the United States without authorization (as defined by the National Immigration Law Center); (3) an enrolled student that refuses to provide documentation of legal residence in the United States. 1 – Yes 2 – No 3 – High School student (Federal law prohibits high schools from collecting undocumented status information. Therefore, simply answer 3 if the student is a current high school student.) NOTES: (1) This field will be validated against the enroll status and student level field to ensure that all code 3 (high school students) are identified uniformly. (2) All students taking courses outside of the continental United States (foreign countries) should use code 2 (No). Foreign nationals are not residents. U.S. citizens enrolled at our institutions overseas are legal residents. 2. Test Score Fields Clarification 130, EOT 135, 70, 140, 74, 144 78 All test score fields (ent_exam_score, test_math, text_english, test_reading, and test_science) must have leading zeros as appropriate.
