Data and Accuracy

Our site is dedicated to accurate information and leverages two primary data sources. The first is IPEDS, which is the national database of all universities in the United States and is managed by the National Center for Education Statistics. The second source would be industry accrediting bodies, such as IACBE, AACSB, and MSCHE. We regularly update our degree pages with up-to-date insights around programs, accreditation, concentrations, and costs. Our latest degree program updates were completed in Q2 of 2025.
