US College & University Administrator Contacts
U.S. · 135,434 named people

One institution as the federal government counts it — 6,072 of them — located at its main campus address. It is not a campus list: a university with five campuses reporting under one federal id is one row here. The coordinates are the main campus, so a radius or drive-time filter gives you the place the decision gets made.

Yes, by job. The chief administrator — usually the president or chancellor — is named on 98.8% of records. A named finance, controller, procurement or grants contact is on 59.8%, and 59.9% of institutions carry at least one named person beyond the chief administrator. Those names come from IRS Form 990 officer schedules and SAM.gov registrations, both public domain, and every one is traceable to the document it came from.

Not on this file. No federal source publishes a contact email for a college: IPEDS has no email field, Form 990 has none, and SAM.gov's point-of-contact emails are withheld from the public extract. We do not guess addresses from a person's name and the institution's domain. The separate contacts file does carry email on the rows where an institution publishes it on its own staff directory page, and nowhere else.

On 831 institutions — 40.8% of the 2,036 that run an intercollegiate programme. The name is read from the staff directory the school publishes on its own athletics site, so it is only there when the school publishes one. 636 of those rows also carry a published athletics phone number. We do not use the NCAA member directory: its terms do not allow it to be republished.

For the 2,036 institutions with a programme: the NCAA, NAIA or NJCAA classification, how many sports they sponsor, athlete counts for men and women, and head-coach counts — all from the federal Equity in Athletics collection, which every Title IV institution with a programme must file. An institution with no programme is written as No, not left blank. Sport-by-sport detail is a separate file.

Core revenue and core expenses on 98.2% of records, from the federal finance collection. Public, private non-profit and for-profit institutions report under three different accounting standards, so the file carries whichever one applies plus a column saying which — never a total across the three, which would not mean anything. Published tuition, admission rate and median graduate earnings come from the College Scorecard.

Measured on every row of this file: a street address on 100.0%, a phone number on 98.8%, a website on 98.8% and map coordinates on 100.0%. The product page lists the fill rate for every column, so nothing is a surprise after you buy it.

City names were checked against the US Census place name for their ZIP code, lost leading zeros in ZIP codes were repaired, county names and codes were confirmed against the coordinates, and every row was graded for address completeness. Two campuses of one university at one address are never merged, because the federal institution id guards the check. The processing log on this page lists each step with its count and date.

The federal data is five separate collections that do not join themselves: institutional characteristics, athletics, the College Scorecard, the finance and staffing files, plus Form 990 and SAM.gov for the names. This is those five joined on the federal institution id, with the fuzzy join measured and reported rather than assumed, and with the named contacts sorted into job functions by rule. You can build it yourself; this is a day of work for the price of a lunch.

From the federal IPEDS collection run by the National Center for Education Statistics, the Department of Education's Equity in Athletics Data Analysis collection, the College Scorecard, IRS Form 990 officer schedules, SAM.gov entity registrations, and the staff directories institutions publish on their own athletics sites. The federal sources are US government works in the public domain. The athletics staff-directory rows carry the page they were read from and the date they were read. Nothing in it was bought, licensed or taken from another company's product.

No. The NCAA publishes a member directory that names the athletic director at nearly every member, but its terms prohibit republishing it in any form. We checked, and we left it out. The athletics names in this file come from the institutions' own published staff directories.

No. No federal collection publishes campus square footage. Programme-level enrolment and any kind of ranking are out of scope; this is a list of institutions with the facts a seller needs to target and address them.

Yes. Every row carries the federal IPEDS institution id and, where it exists, the Office of Postsecondary Education id and the IRS employer identification number, so it joins cleanly to federal student-aid data, nonprofit filings and federal contracting records. Coordinates are on nearly every row for matching against any other list of places.
