Data Collection

Enrollment and Completions Reporting
The Tennessee Independent Colleges and Universities Association (TICUA) collects enrollment and completions data from each of its member institutions.  This data collection allows the private colleges and universities in the state to understand the enrollment characteristics and patterns of the students attending and graduating from their institutions. This reporting format replaces several surveys previously conducted by TICUA with its member institutions. In addition, TICUA works closely with the staff of the Tennessee Higher Education Commission (THEC) in its research and analysis of the Tennessee Lottery Scholarship (TELS) program. This information will also provide our institutions with additional research on the impact of the TELS program.

Please contact Amy Heckman  (615-242-6400) if you have any questions.
