  • Fact Book: Interactive dashboards with information on degrees, faculty, staff, and financial aid (produced annually)
  • Official Enrollment Reports: Contains information on enrollments and student credit hours (SCH) by level, college, demographic group, and time status (produced each semester)
  • Common Data Set: Used to populate many of our national surveys such as U.S. News & World Report and Princeton Review; Contains information on enrollment, incoming freshman demographics, faculty, course section sizes, and more (produced annually) 

 

If none of these resources answers your question, you may submit a data request here. If you are affiliated with the UNM Health Sciences Center and are using your salud.unm.edu credentials, please use this form to submit your data request.If you are affiliated with the UNM Gallup Campus, please use this form to submit your data request. Due to a large volume of data requests, any requests received through December 20th, 2024 will be completed in January 2025. 

Note:

  • Submission of a request does not guarantee data access. Data dissemination is at the discretion of the data stewards and guided by state and federal regulations and UNM's Data Governance Policy.
  • Data requests take various amounts of time to process depending upon the complexity, sensitivity, and time submitted. During peak reporting cycles, we are unable to guarantee delivery sooner than 3 weeks from the date of the request. During less intensive periods, we can typically return data within 2 weeks, subject to other reporting priorities and the complexity of your request.
  • We are unable to provide reports to be used for student research, master's theses, and doctoral dissertations.
  • Requests for student-level data or any data with personally identifiable information (PII) should be referred to the UNM Division of Enrollment Mangement. If you are seeking live, unofficial, and/or student-level data, please initiate a data request with Enrollment Management here.
