Summary
This bill requires certain data collection and reporting related to the parental status of students attending institutions of higher education (IHEs).
First, the bill requires the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) to develop certain data elements related to the parental status of students attending IHEs for the surveys conducted as a part of the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS). NCES must annually collect information regarding these data elements for all IHEs participating in federal student aid programs.

Among other elements, this technical assistance must include recommendations to IHEs on best practices for communicating with students about data use and privacy, including how data will be used to help students who are parents or caregivers of dependent children.
