Report Purpose

Important Reporting Considerations

This page documents the legacy report used for reporting Distance Education for IPEDS prior to Fall 2021.

Current IPEDS Distance Education has been added to the IPEDS Fall Enrollment Report and certified through the UMS Report Certification process.

This report returns distance education information based on IPEDS requirements for terms prior to Fall 2021. It returns distance education enrollment details by term for all institutions, excluding onsite enrollment. It details whether the student is enrolled in some, or exclusively, distance ed classes, as well as if they are located in Maine, in the US, or outside the US.

Please note: if running for a term prior to 1810, results on student residency may differ from the results that were previously run and reported to IPEDS because earlier versions of this report pulled student address on the day the report was run. During the summer of 2017, the report was reconfigured to pull student address as of census date to eliminate this discrepancy, starting with the 1810 report (please note, discrepancies may still occur if users change history on students' address effective dating).
