College Transparency Act: Better Education Data for Students
This act establishes a new student data system to help prospective students and their families make informed decisions about higher education. It will provide clearer insights into student enrollment, progression, completion, and post-college outcomes, as well as costs and financial aid. The system also aims to reduce the reporting burden on educational institutions.
Key points
Colleges will be required to submit student data, including academic progress, completion rates, and post-graduation outcomes like earnings.
A publicly accessible website will offer aggregated data, allowing comparisons of institutions and programs based on costs, completion rates, and career prospects.
Student privacy will be protected, with the system explicitly prohibiting the collection of sensitive information such as health data, grades, or immigration status.
The collected data cannot be used for law enforcement, debt collection, or to create federal college ranking systems.
