CGS/GRE Survey of Graduate Enrollment and Degrees

The GRE Board and the Council of Graduate Schools (CGS) jointly sponsor an annual survey of graduate enrollment. The survey collects total graduate school enrollment data and discipline data from CGS member institutions and members of the regional associations affiliated with CGS. A goal of the data collection effort is to improve the availability of data on graduate education. Read more about the Annual Survey of Graduate Enrollment and Degrees.
