Preface

Since the fall of 1987, the Missouri Department of Higher Education has annually collected student unit-record information from public institutions across the state.  Now known collectively as the Enhanced Missouri Student Achievement Study (EMSAS), these collections have proven invaluable in the ongoing analysis and evaluation of postsecondary education in Missouri. 

The MDHE requests this information pursuant to its authority under Sections 173.005 and 173.020, RSMo, and 6 CSR 10-4.021, as well as in compliance with the provisions of the federal Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA).  Access to identifiable student records contained in the data is protected in accordance with FERPA.  Aggregate (non-identifiable) summary information derived from these data enable the MDHE to appropriately meet its statutory and other evaluation and reporting requirements, including the annual publication of the High School Graduates Performance Report and the Statistical Summary of Missouri Higher Education.

Over the three two decades, EMSAS has undergone many improvements in regard to data quality as well as administrative efficiency. To a large extent, these improvements embody the collective efforts of institutional data coordinators and MDHE staff. Because of these improvements, EMSAS is playing an increasingly important role in assisting strategic planning and policy implementation at both state and institutional levels. It is in this role that we expect the EMSAS will keep providing reliable, timely, and responsive information to help strengthen Missouri higher education to the benefit of students, families, policymakers, and institutions.

Data Reporting and Review

 

EMSAS Collection                                 Included Terms 

Current Fall Enrollment                         Current Census Date Fall Enrollment (e.g. Fall 2012)

Previous Year Completions                   Summer, Fall, Spring / Winter (e.g. Summer 2011, Fall 2011, and Spring / Winter 2012)

Previous Year Term Registration           Summer, Fall, Spring / Winter (e.g. Summer 2011, Fall 2011, and Spring / Winter 2012)

 

EMSAS files are to be submitted annually by all public institutions and campuses in Missouri.  Specific reporting deadlines will be provided by MDHE staff in an annual “Class A” data request letter, to be provided to institutions each year in accordance with 6 CSR 10-4.021.  In general, however, completions and term registration files are to be provided by mid-September each year, and fall enrollment files are to be provided by mid-October.  All files will be reported to the MDHE via State Report Manager- http://dhe.mo.gov/data/srm , error checked, certified, and approved by MDHE staff upon receipt.

Files should be submitted as comma-separated values (*.csv) format. 

Where appropriate, data should be exported in a format which preserves leading and trailing zeroes (institutional FICE code, social security number / student campus ID, and CIP code are examples of data elements in which this may be important).

    Field Status:                          Current

    Definition:                             Total number of graded credit hours a student has earned during the term

                                                 being reported.

    Comments:                           Graded credit hours  is defined as hours for which a student is expected to

                                                 receive a letter grade, e.g. A, B, C, D, F.  Excluded from the graded term credit

                                                  hours are those credit hours associated with courses for which a student is

                                                 expected to receive a grade of Pass/Fail or Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory

                                                 completion or those credit hours associated with the courses the student is

                                                  auditing. Thus, in most cases, the total term credit hours (TOTRMHRR) and

                                                 graded credit hours (GRDTRMR) will be the same. However, in some

                                                 instances, the total graded credit hours may be less given the fact that

                                                 many students take courses Pass/Fail or for some other recognition of

                                                 course completion other than a letter grade.

                                                

                                                 Depending on how an institution treats remedial mathematics, remedial

                                                 English, remedial reading, non-college-level and dual enrollment credits,

                                                 these too might be included in this total graded credit hour field. Thus, this

                                                 field should include the numerical value of the total graded credits the

                                                 institution has recorded on its files for the student during the term being
