@klvogelanderson: you may be at the wrong link (IPEDS gives a few ways to download the data and it's not easy to get from one to another). Try this link: https://nces.ed.gov/ipeds/datacenter/DataFiles.aspx
You may have to click continue twice on two pages (the second time after selecting 2007 for the data year from the drop down), but you should end up with a page that looks like this. The dictionary files are highlighted.
Thank you so much! I appreciate it. :)
No problem!
Closing now, but feel free to reopen if you have a question.
Hi everyone. Where do you find the data dictionary, or code book, for each IPEDS file? The data dictionary is mentioned in our assignment ("Click the “continue” button on this page to see the data and accompanying dictionary files"). However, when I click the link to get to that page, I don't see "continue." Am I missing something really obvious? I also tried searching IPEDS using each file name (hd2007, ic2007mission), but there are no results. Did you all have any luck? I suppose I can do the assignment without the code book, but I wanted to filter out any missing data. Thanks so much. Katie
