Reports and Resources

The Office of Decision Support prepares a wide variety of static reports and interactive, dynamic reports and dashboards for use in university planning and decision-making. These reports encompass a variety of subject areas, which you may explore in the tabs below. The office also provides limited support for ad hoc reports. Should you have questions around finding information to meet your needs, please contact us for additional assistance.

Institutional Profiles

The Office of Institutional Analysis (IAP), in cooperation with other campus units, participates in a variety of national accountability, ranking, and benchmarking efforts. Much of the data are available through national datasets such as the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), the Consortium for Student Retention Data Exchange (CSRDE), the National Science Foundation (NSF), and US News and World Report. Other data sharing efforts focus on presenting information in a comparable format, such as that provided in the Voluntary System of Accountability (VSA) College Portrait, and the Common Data Set (CDS). This section provides links to these studies, as well as to nationally available resources that the staff in IAP use in peer comparisons and analyses.

Level

Students enrolled in graduate/professional degree programs are included in both categories, however, overall totals reflect non-duplicated counts, and thus may not equal the sum of the categories.

Common Data Set

University of Nevada, Las Vegas

The University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV) is a public research institution committed to rigorous educational programs and promoting well-being and achievement through education, research, scholarship, and creative activity.

Since its first classes were held in 1957, UNLV has transformed from a small branch campus into a thriving university. Along the way, UNLV has become an indispensable resource in one of the country’s fastest-growing and most enterprising cities. UNLV has more than 30,000 students, 3,500 faculty and staff, and offers more than 290 bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral degree programs and 100 certificate programs. This includes a new School of Medicine and internationally and nationally recognized programs in hotel administration, engineering, business, creative writing, conflict resolution, legal writing, public health, and nursing.

UNLV graduates are dedicated to meeting the challenges brought on by rapid urban growth, economic and cultural diversity, and sustainability, and overwhelmingly choose to remain in Southern Nevada. Two-thirds of UNLV’s 120,000 alumni reside here, including more than 5,000 K-12 teachers; 9,000 hotel and tourism professionals; and thousands of health care professionals, business owners, and managers. Eighty percent of Boyd School of Law graduates remain in state. UNLV’s School of Dental Medicine students provide millions of dollars in free dental services to those in need.

The university strives to create an environment conducive to academic success – from the day students arrive for orientation, during their time on campus and into their chosen careers. This includes a growing Honors College, an innovative curriculum with a defined course path for undergraduates, and access to academic and career advising – including a dedicated Academic Success Center. An array of research opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students strengthen the academic experience and allow students to tackle pressing real-world issues alongside top faculty.

Accredited by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities, UNLV is among the nation’s most diverse campuses for undergraduates, with more than half of its students from racial or ethnic minority groups. UNLV is a Minority-Serving and Hispanic-Serving Institution, as designated by the U.S. Dept. of Education. With nearly 1,900 active-duty military and veteran students, the university is also recognized as a military friendly university with a dedicated office to help students and their families navigate the academic and administrative pathways of a college education.

UNLV recently attained R1 “very high research activity” status from the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education. UNLV is now one of 130 institutions—out of 4,000 colleges and universities nationwide—to hold R1 status, the gold standard for university research metrics.

UNLV is continuing toward its broader Top Tier vision to become one of the nation’s premier public universities in research, education, and community impact by 2025. UNLV continues to attract top students and faculty, educate a diversifying population and workforce, and drive economic activity through innovation, research and community partnerships.

Further information is available at the Common Data Set Initiative.

Official NSHE Student FTE and Headcount Enrollment Reports

Following system-wide enrollment reporting procedures, the Office of Institutional Analysis and Decision Support prepares official enrollment reports for the Nevada System of Higher Education (NSHE) at the beginning and end of each fall and spring semester. In addition, a summer enrollment worksheet, including undergraduate nursing and science-based prerequisite enrollments, is sent to NSHE at the end of each summer term. These reports are used in the legislatively approved formula for funding instruction at UNLV and therefore include state-supported enrollments only.

The beginning of semester reports are called Preliminary reports and the end of semester reports are called Final reports. The final reports produce the official figures used in formula funding calculations.

Should you have questions about the NSHE Official Enrollment Reports, or other reports we prepare, please contact us.
