Data Dictionary
The data dictionary provides guidance and meaning to words, metrics and terminologies commonly used across the institution and in higher education. The intent is to have consistent definitions and standards across all data projects. If you would like to find the answer to a data definition or would like to add to the data dictionary, please feel free to submit a data request form.
