FROM THE PRESIDENT:
Our Growing Collaboration with
You as Your Trusted Agent
Twenty-one years ago, the registrar community helped form the Clearinghouse
with a simple principle in mind: establish a trusted and secure environment
through which to relieve the administrative burdens related to school compliancebased activities for the benefit of students, administrators, institutions, and data
requestors (the federal government). Over the years, the registrar community
expanded the Clearinghouse’s role in relieving administrative burdens, moving it
beyond federal interactions. In the process, a strong bond was forged between the
registrar’s office and the Clearinghouse. Our mission to serve you, your students,
and your institution remains the core of our organizational emphasis, as it has
through the years.
Ricardo Torres
CEO & President,
National Student Clearinghouse
Whether interacting on your behalf with the Department of Education regarding
the implementation of changes (such as, the new 150% rule) or coordinating
with AACRAO to develop impact assessments of proposed rule changes on your
work burdens, the Clearinghouse consistently canvasses our 3,600 participating
institutions to ensure all points of view get air time. Our recent testimony before
the House Committee on Veterans’ Affairs is the most recent example of our
tight collaboration.
The depth of our engagement with higher education was highlighted by our
ability to draw on various sources within the postsecondary community to gather
the information that informed our testimony. We are grateful to our Clearinghouse
Advisory Committee for bringing the administrative work burdens related to
veteran matriculation, tuition reimbursement, transfers, etc., to our attention a year
ago. In addition, over the past year, several Clearinghouse staff members, including
myself, have gone on “listening” tours, talking with numerous registrars and other
administrators to nail down the pain points related to veterans’ issues and, as
5
importantly, identify potential near-term remedies. Our participation in the Million Records Project provided an
opening for us to bring forth the administrative issues with which you’ve been struggling. It also allowed us to
identify potential solutions for leveraging the Clearinghouse, on your behalf, to meet federal requirements and
eliminate these pain points, which would also benefit veterans, school veteran administrators, institutions, the VA,
and the Department of Defense. We will continue to follow up to ensure we gain traction in these areas.
I want to give a special shout-out to Brenda Selman (University of Missouri-Columbia), Carol Fleisher (University
of Missouri), Scott Owczarek (University of Wisconsin-Madison), Shelby Stanfield (University of Texas-Austin),
Marc Barker (Colorado State University), and Chris Knauer (University of North Carolina-Charlotte), who shared
their expert administrative resources and helped us crystallize our submission to the Committee.
The Clearinghouse is always looking for ways to better serve your students, your office, and your school. Thank
you for the TRUST you have placed in us. Please know that we value each and every relationship we have
established over the years. I look forward to the opportunity to see and talk with more of you as I continue my
listening tours. I find them to be a priceless source of information and relationship building.
Have a great summer!

ENROLLMENT REPORTING
Changes for 150% Direct Loan Legislation
In May 2013, the Department of Education (ED) released an
Electronic Announcement and Dear Colleague Letter regarding
regulations published for the “Moving Ahead for Progress in the
21st Century Act” and the 150% Direct Loan time-limited eligibility
provisions of Public Law 112-141. Under the new regulations,
students who exceed 150% of the length of their program in
order to complete it are no longer eligible for subsidized loans.
The new regulations require changes to the enrollment reporting
process used to complete NSLDS compliance, which will provide
ED with the fields they need to calculate and track a student’s
subsidized loan usage. Registrar and financial aid offices are
both impacted by the 150% enrollment reporting changes, as
are all students, undergraduate and graduate levels, who are
Title IV recipients.
Since ED’s announcement, the Clearinghouse has been tracking
the 150% Direct Loan legislation and enrollment reporting changes
very closely as well as working with ED on implementing and
programming the new reporting requirements. In addition, we’ve
provided regular updates to our participating institutions, as they
became available. n
ED has extended the
deadline for reporting
the new required
program-level data
elements to October 1.
Read our Q&A
(including file layout FAQs
and new data element fields)
Download
our Programming & Testing Guide
13
Here’s what you
need to know:
1.
The deadline for reporting the new
required program level data elements has been
extended from July 1 to October 1, 2014. The
Clearinghouse will accept files in the new format
starting June 16 (see our updated Enrollment
Reporting Program and Testing Guide).
2.
Per ED, within its Dear Colleague Letter:
“Failure to begin reporting under the new
enrollment reporting file layouts by October 1,
2014 will likely result in the school’s enrollment
records being rejected by NSLDS and the school
being out of compliance with the regulatory
requirements and possibly subject to sanctions.”
3.
Student Status Confirmation Reports
(SSCR) rosters must now be scheduled every 60
days and responded to within 15 days of receipt.
As your institution’s third-party servicer, the
Clearinghouse will continue to complete the
scheduling of and response to your institution’s
SSCRs within the parameters set by ED. We
are updating our processes and will be in touch
regarding any changes that may occur due to
the new SSCR requirements.
Watch your email for additional updates.

“Q” Are You?
ED is now requiring that institutions report a three-quarter time (Q)
status (if that is an applicable status to your institution). Schools
are required to report the new required elements, including “Q”
status (if applicable), by October 1, 2014. A student’s enrollment in
a postsecondary institution is considered three-quarter time when
his or her academic workload is at least three-fourths (75%) the
workload of a full-time student, as determined by the institution.

globally accepted standards for the secure,
citizen centered consultation of educational
data — allowing globally mobile citizens to
share their authentic educational data with whomever they want, whenever they
want, wherever.” Recently, the G.R.E.E.N. statement of principles was endorsed by
the Groningen Declaration Network. G.R.E.E.N., the Global Registrar EduRecord
Exchange Network , established by the Clearinghouse, is dedicated to promoting
a free, open, principles-driven data exchange ecosystem through which electronic

Building on the initial efforts of the Groningen Declaration, the Clearinghouse has

is to disrupt the current paper-driven Erasmus mobility process, which is a limiting

The Clearinghouse is playing a consultative role and helping
to inform data transmission standards. Our hope is that, as the
European Commission project moves forward, we can establish
a set of standards-driven exchange networks that abide by very
clear data and document transmission standards, in addition to
data and privacy standards.
In addition, we have launched the pilot between the Clearinghouse
and DUO, an agency of the Dutch Ministry of Education, which
was announced in April 2013. The pilot, which is based on our
DegreeVerify service model, enables student postsecondary
credentials to be verified between U.S. and Dutch institutions via
the Web at no cost.
SM
This past April, the 2014 Groningen Declaration Network meeting
was held at Georgetown University and co-organized by DUO, the
Clearinghouse, and AACRAO. During the meeting, our CEO, Rick
Torres, gave an overview of a new pilot that the Clearinghouse
is conducting with two Chinese education agencies: CHESICC
(the China Higher Education Student Information and Career
GLOBAL EFFORTS
Center) and CDGDC (the China Academic Degrees and Graduate
Education Development Center). As part of the pilot, the
Clearinghouse will enable the electronic exchange of transcripts
and academic documents between CHESICC and CDGDC, as
well as pilot U.S. postsecondary institutions, in order to facilitate
a smoother international admissions process. At the conclusion
of the Groningen Declaration Network meeting, many attendees
visited the Clearinghouse’s offices in Herndon, VA, where they
learned more about the unique role that the Clearinghouse
plays within the U.S. education community, as the trusted
partner of higher education institutions for relieving their
administrative burdens.
Also in April, the Clearinghouse hosted a delegation from China,
which was coordinated by the National Committee on United
States-China Relations. The delegation members, representing
the national Ministry of Education as well as provincial education
bureaus and six Chinese universities, visited various U.S. locations
to learn more about our higher education system and university
international student services. n

National Student Clearinghouse
Auditor’s Guide
FINANCIAL AID services
How Institutions Use Clearinghouse Systems for Enrollment Status Compliance Reporting
Purpose
The Auditor’s Guide to the National Student
Clearinghouse is designed to facilitate
the audit process for schools using
Clearinghouse services. It helps the auditor
understand how your institution uses our
services to complete its timely enrollment
status compliance reporting to the student
loan community.
The Clearinghouse systems enable
institutions to report their information to
a trusted source who will in turn report
the enrollment for compliance related
purposes on behalf of the institution.
The Clearinghouse acts as an agent to
institutions, in accordance with Federal
Regulations. This guide is intended to
supplement the Department of Education’s
Audit Guide and the OMB Circular A-133
Compliance Supplement as it relates to
enrollment reporting.
The Auditor’s Guide will take the auditor
through Clearinghouse data flows,
scheduling, suggested audit procedures
and helpful hints to use while performing
an institution’s annual compliance audit or
Program Review. For information regarding
the Clearinghouse annual audit, please
download the most recent annual audit
from the Clearinghouse Web site
(www.studentclearinghouse.org/audit).
This document is intended to supplement and clarify
procedures during an audit, specific to enrollment status
change information. It is not intended to override any
academic or institutional policies nor any federal laws
or regulations.
What is the
National Student Clearinghouse?
The National Student Clearinghouse (a nonprofit formed in
1993) is the unique and trusted source for higher education
enrollment and degree verifications. The Clearinghouse serves
as a single point of contact for the collection and timely
exchange of accurate and comprehensive enrollment, degree
and certificate records on behalf of its more than 3,600
participating higher education institutions, which represent
98 percent of the national enrollment.
Through its verification and reporting services, the
Clearinghouse saves higher education institutions
cumulatively more than a hundred million dollars annually.
Most Clearinghouse services are provided to colleges and
universities at little or no charge, including enhanced transcript
and research services, enabling institutions to redistribute
limited staff and budget resources to more important
student service efforts. Clearinghouse services are designed
to facilitate an institution’s compliance with the Family
Educational Rights and Privacy Act, The Higher Education
Act, and other applicable laws.
In addition, the Clearinghouse provides accurate, timely
enrollment and degree verifications to student loan providers,
employers, student credit issuers, the U.S. Department of
Education, and others who access its registry more than
half a billion times annually.
Understanding the Clearinghouse
Transmission Schedule
The institution’s Planned Transmission Schedule for the
Clearinghouse is used as the framework to complete timely
compliance reporting. It also sets reporting expectations
for the various departments within the institution, the
Clearinghouse, and student loan community, including the
Department of Education. Each institution has different needs
and, therefore, each transmission schedule is different for each
Clearinghouse participating institution.
Typically, the transmission schedule is comprised of at
least eight to twelve transmissions per academic year. The
frequency of reporting enables the institution to communicate
enrollment status changes in a timely manner.
•
Once a transmission has gone through Clearinghouse
system edits, and the institution has corrected any errors
within the file, the enrollment information is loaded into
the Clearinghouse database.

RESEARCH SERVICES
College Completions Hold Steady
in 2013, as Pathways to Completion
Become More Diverse
In its second annual college completions report, the National
Student Clearinghouse® Research Center™ found that more
than half, 56.1 percent, of first-time degree-seeking students
who enrolled in fall 2007, completed a degree or certificate
within six years, including 13.1 percent who completed at an
institution other than the starting institution. Exclusively fulltime students completed at a rate of 78 percent, with 67
percent graduating from the starting institution and 11 percent
from somewhere else. Overall results were similar to the 2012
completions report findings.
This report focuses on first-time degree-seeking students who
started their postsecondary education in fall 2007, and tracks
their enrollments nationwide for six years, through the spring
2013. Nontraditional student pathways are included, giving a
fuller picture of actual student behavior. For the first time, dual
enrollment students, freshmen who entered college with prior
experience in college-level courses obtained while they were in
high school, are also included in the study. In another first, the
2013 report provides breakdowns by gender. Finally, the report
acknowledges that nontraditional students often take longer
to complete college through the inclusion of a supplemental
feature that provides follow-up seven-year outcomes for the fall
2006 cohort (versus the traditional six-year length of study).
Six-Year Outcomes by Enrollment Intensity (N=2,386,291)
More than half (56.1 percent) of first-time degreeseeking students who enrolled in fall 2007 completed
a degree or certificate within six years, including 13.1
percent who completed at an institution other than their
starting institution. Completion rates varied considerably
depending on enrollment intensity ranging from about 22
percent for exclusively part-time students to 77.7 percent
among exclusively full-time students.
20
Findings in the 2013 report include:
• Nearly one in four students who completed a degree or certificate (23.4 percent) did so
at an institution different than the one where they first enrolled.
• Completions beyond the starting institution raised the overall completion rate from
43 to 56 percent. Counting students who graduated somewhere other than at their
starting institution increased the completion rate for every institution type and student
subgroup studied.
• Total completion rates for students who started at each of the three largest institution
categories ranged from 40 percent for students who started at two-year public
institutions to 63 percent for those who started at four-year public institutions to 73
percent for students who started at four-year private nonprofit institutions.
• Gains from completions at institutions other than the starting institution were greater for
students who were age 20 or younger when they first entered college than they were
for older students: 14.7 percentage points, compared to 8.4 and 6.8 percentage points
for the delayed entry (age 21-24) and adult learner (over age 24) groups, respectively.
• Six-year completion rates for the fall of 2007 national cohort showed a gender gap of 6.7
percentage points in favor of women.
• The completion rate for dual enrollment students was 66 percent compared to 54
percent for students with no prior dual enrollment experience.
• Seven-year outcomes for the fall 2006 cohort showed a 4 percentage point increase
(from 54.1 to 58.1 percent) in total completions over the six-year rate reported in our 2012
completions report. Changes in percentages from the six- to seven-year outcome show
the advantages of tracking college students for a longer period.
• Seventeen percent of two-year starters completed a four-year degree, and more than
half of those did so without first receiving an associate’s degree.
“Conventional approaches fail to capture the complexity
of student behavior because they look only at the starting

multiple institutions that an individual student may have

Signature Completions Extra
Because of the enhanced cohort used in our
sixth Signature Report, which includes former
dual enrollment students, the results of the
2007 cohort are not directly comparable to
those of the 2006 cohort presented in the first
completions report, released in November 2012.
The Signature Completions Extra, released in
November 2013, provides six-year outcomes for
the fall 2007 college-entering cohort (excluding
former dual enrollment students), allowing an
apples-to-apples comparison to the fall 2006
cohort of 2012, showing that completion rates
remained steady.

6: State Supplement, Completing College: A
State Level View of Student Attainment Rates,
which includes completions through May
2013. The study found a significant increase
in the number of states where more than 10
percent of students who started at a fouryear public institution and received a degree
ended up receiving that degree in a different
state; the number of states increased from 9
to 12, compared to last year’s state-level report.
(Nationally, 6 percent of students who started
at a four-year public institution and received
a degree ended up graduating in a different
state.) Additionally, traditional-age students
starting at four-year public institutions had
higher completion rates than older students.
The completion rate for women was higher than
that of men in almost every state.

Downward Trend in College
Enrollments Shows Signs of Slowing
In the current term, college enrollments continued to decline, but at a slower rate than in
recent terms, according to the just-released Spring Current Term Enrollment Estimates from
the National Student Clearinghouse® Research Center™. In spring 2014, overall postsecondary
enrollments decreased 0.8 percent from the previous spring, the smallest decrease since spring
2012, when enrollments declined 0.3 percent. The Clearinghouse first started reporting on
current term enrollments in fall 2011.
Results for the spring 2014 term differ greatly by institutional sector, with continued decreases
at four-year for-profit institutions (-4.9 percent) and two-year public institutions (-2.7 percent).
However, enrollments increased at four-year public institutions (0.7 percent) and four-year
private nonprofit institutions (2.0 percent).
Findings from the report include:
“It is encouraging to
see that the number of
younger students has
begun to grow again after
declining in each of the
last three terms.”
Dr. Doug Shapiro, Executive Research
Director of the National Student
Clearinghouse Research Center
• For-profit rates of decline have slowed considerably from last fall’s 9.7 percent decline, but
enrollments are still nearly 5 percent below last spring’s total.
• Declines continue to be concentrated among adult students (over age 24).
• Traditional-age enrollments (students age 24 and under) grew by 0.7 percent.
• Adult student enrollments at community colleges fell nearly 6 percent from spring 2013.
• Enrollments declined in 37 states and increased in 13 states, with the largest increases seen in
Oregon (5.2 percent) and New Hampshire (15.5 percent).
“It is encouraging to see that the number of younger students has begun to grow again after

College Students Still on the Move
The National Student Clearinghouse® Research Center™ reports that just over 9 percent of all
students attended more than one institution during the 2012-2013 academic year. In its latest
Snapshot Report™ on student mobility rates the Research Center shows that, overall, student
mobility increased from 2010-11 to 2011-2012, and then stabilized in 2012-13.
The report is based on student-level data made available to the Clearinghouse by its more
than 3,600 participating colleges and universities, including 98 percent of students attending
public and private nonprofit postsecondary institutions. Snapshot Reports, released
throughout the year, provide a look in time at emerging college enrollment patterns and
student pathways.
During the last several years, the Research Center has continued to focus on student
mobility, both institutional and interstate. Community colleges have consistently played an
important role, with nearly three-fourths of all mobile students having at least one enrollment
at a 2-year public institution in each year studied. Among all students whose first 2012-13
enrollment occurred at a community college, 11.5 percent had also enrolled somewhere else
by the end of the academic year. That figure includes all forms of student mobility from July 1
to June 30, including transfer, swirl, concurrent enrollment, online and summer courses.
“This report shows the
importance of student
mobility within a single
year, revealing yet more
variation among students
whose postsecondary
education pathways span
multiple institutions.”

Center looked at students,
across all levels of study,
who enrolled in more than

provides a current indicator
of the prevalence of multiinstitutional student pathways.
“While traditional student transfer occurs between academic years, this report shows the importance

National Student Clearinghouse
Research Center® Supports SVA’s
Historic Million Records Project
™
Student Veterans of America Study Examines
Postsecondary Outcomes of Veterans
In March, the Student Veterans of America released the results of
its momentous Million Records Project (MRP), which examined the
education pathway of veterans who have used Montgomery and Post
9/11 GI Bill education benefits. The National Student Clearinghouse
Research Center supported the project, along with the U.S. Department
of Veterans Affairs (VA).
In this first-of-its kind study, SVA’s analysis in the MRP found that, in spite
of challenges unique to them, student veterans are completing college
at about the same rate as their peers. The study covers comprehensive
national statistics on benefit recipients’ postsecondary outcomes,
including degree completion, time-to-degree, and field of study
preference.
These findings refute claims that student veterans have a higher dropout
rate than normal. Not only were their graduation rates better than
expected, but many student veterans also went on to pursue degrees
at a higher level. Of the nearly one-third (31.3 percent) of veterans who
initially earned a vocational certificate, 35.8 percent of those who earned
an associate degree and 20.8 percent of those who earned a bachelor’s
degree went on to earn another degree at a higher level, the report says.
In order to accurately measure the postsecondary academic outcomes
of current beneficiaries, data was analyzed on a national sample of one
million student veterans who began using their GI Bill benefits between
2002 and 2010. The Clearinghouse matched a VA-provided dataset
of a randomly selected sample of these Montgomery and Post-9/11
“The majority of student veterans
accessing their GI Bill benefits are
completing degrees and showing
unparalleled determination to do so,
despite many unique barriers. A single
deployment can interrupt a student
veteran’s education for at least nine to
13 months, but they’re returning to the
classroom and completing.”

According to the MRP report issued
by the SVA, “The public sector had
the highest within-sector retention
rate (42.9 percent) for completions,
followed by the private nonprofit sector
(42.2 percent), and the proprietary
sector (36.8 percent). While private
nonprofit institutions had a high

highest migration rate (21.6 percent).
This suggests that approximately 1 in 5
student veterans that initially begin [sic]
at a two- or four-year private nonprofit
institution eventually left the school and
the sector entirely before completing
their first degree.”
GI Bill veteran education beneficiary records to its national
coverage of postsecondary enrollment and degree records. All
personal and institutional identifiable information was removed
from the resulting dataset that was then analyzed by SVA. The
Clearinghouse also supported the SVA by answering technical
questions concerning the data.
For example, more reservists and National Guard personnel
were mobilized during Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF) and
Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) than in previous combat eras.
However, to date, the effects of mobilization on the academic
outcomes of recent student veterans have remained largely
unknown.
The Importance of Tracking Today’s Student Veterans
These factors, combined with the Post-9/11 GI Bill investment of
more than $30 billion, called for the need for current measures
of success of the nation’s veterans. The MRP, a public-private
partnership between the VA, SVA, and the Clearinghouse,
was designed to address many of the weaknesses found in
previously established national databases and surveys.
The benefits the original GI Bill produced for World War II
veterans and the U.S. economy is well documented. But this
historical research, while it provides useful insights, is not as
valuable to policymakers and stakeholders who rely on current
data to inform their decision making. Through the MRP, the
outcomes of today’s student vet population, who are vastly
different from those of earlier generations, can be measured.
“The MRP demonstrates the strength of public-private
research partnerships and the Clearinghouse’s unique
27
ability to identify student education pathways for specific
populations of students,” state Dr. Doug Shapiro, Executive
Research Director, National Student Clearinghouse Research
Center. “The Clearinghouse is proud to have provided near
real-time postsecondary outcome data as a result of its trusted
relationships with postsecondary education institutions.
Policymakers, service providers, and colleges can use this
research to support student veterans and establish benchmarks
for future student veteran achievement.” n
Defining and Improving
Success for Student Veterans
Rick Torres, Clearinghouse President and CEO, Testifies
Before the Subcommittee on Economic Opportunity of
the House Committee on Veterans’ Affairs
On May 8, Rick Torres, President and CEO, of the National Student
Clearinghouse testified before the Subcommittee on Economic
Opportunity of the House Committee on Veterans’ Affairs during its
hearing, “Defining and Improving Success for Student Veterans.” He was
joined by representatives from the Student Veterans of America (SVA),
U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), American Council on Education
(ACE), and Association of Private Sector Colleges and Universities
(APSCU), among others, who discussed how success should be defined
for student veterans and how to ensure student veterans achieve their
academic goals.
In his testimony, Rick covered the complexities involved as returning
veterans separate from service. He outlined processes and procedures
that could be greatly simplified as student veterans enroll in school. To this
end, the Clearinghouse could be utilized as a one-stop data home to help
facilitate school enrollment. Working from the highly successful recent
Student Veterans of America Million Records Project (MRP), which the
Clearinghouse supported along with the Veterans Administration, Rick also

burdens on both government
and educational institutions.”

spoke on supporting further research with more details and
greater focus to determine which veteran support programs,
both qualitative and financial, best serve the needs of veterans
today and which need to be improved or modified. The
MRP, which was released in March, made available, for the
first time, comprehensive national statistics on the benefit
recipients of the Montgomery and Post 9/11 GI Bills. It looked
at postsecondary outcomes, including degree completion,
time-to-degree, and field of study preferences.
Another important step outlined in his testimony was the
need to transform the administrative work required of both
veterans and schools with regard to financial aid, coursework, and
reporting requirements. For example, the Meteor™ financial aid
service, from the Clearinghouse, can provide student veterans with
a view of their individual debt and benefits.
“We firmly believe when it comes to improving veteran success
in pursuit of their education goals, eliminating the extra hurdles
that student veterans must overcome to enroll with benefits and
maintain receipt of benefits that are in sync with their chosen
educational pathways would be a great start,” he stated. n
