This year's "Tennessee Higher Education Fact Book" consists of four sections and an appendix of additional resources and terminology. The four main sections of the report provide data on Student Participation, Student Success, Academic and Fiscal Trends, and Outcomes-Based Funding. Relative to the previous Fact Book, Quality Assurance Funding (QAF) data are no longer presented in a standalone section of the Fact Book. QAF data are still reported in the Fact Book and may be found within the Student Success, Academic and Fiscal Trends, and Outcomes-Based Funding sections. Complementing this report, an online dashboard provides a by-institution snapshot of fall 2022 enrollment and academic year 2021-22 degree completion data (representing summer 2021, fall 2021, and spring 2022). New this year, data downloads are available to make the information presented within the report more accessible and useable to readers. Enrollment and degree completion data for Tennessee's newest public institution, the University of Tennessee Southern, are presented in a separate report supplement available via the Fact Book landing page. The 2022-23 Fact Book was originally published in early June 2023. Following its initial release, THEC staff received additional data on TCAT outcomes, expanded data reporting on academic majors, and corrected errors and clarified content related to College Scorecard data reporting.
