Data updates

By Vince Czaplyski, Own the Answer Inc. · Data: IPEDS 2022-23 completions; College Scorecard June 2026; DAPIP Sept 2026 · Last reviewed · How we compute this

Each federal release we load, and each change to the site's method, in date order. Newest first.

Google indexing tier; IndexNow; methodology page

Campus pages are now submitted to Google only when they carry federal outcome data (completion and earnings) or an accountability record; registry-only campuses stay online but out of Google's index. All sitemap URLs submitted to Bing via IndexNow. New Methodology and Updates pages; publisher and editor identified on every page.

Indexing fixes

Duplicate campus records now canonicalize to one survivor; thin state hubs excluded from the sitemap; nearby-campus links added to every campus page.

Site launched

3,741 federally reported campuses (IPEDS 2022-23 completions; College Scorecard June 2026; DAPIP September 2026) plus 3,709 FMCSA CDL training-provider registry entries and 1,912 state-roster campuses. Accountability layer (accreditor sanctions, Heightened Cash Monitoring) added from DAPIP actions.

Upcoming: College Scorecard and IPEDS publish annually (next expected mid-2027); DAPIP accreditation actions monthly. See Methodology for how each source is used.
