Frequency of Data Collection. Annual
Data Quality. Program data are supplied by institutions, which certify the accuracy of the data.
Explanation. Efficiency data are determined by calculating the total dollars allocated to the cohorts
divided by the total number of Javits Fellows receiving a terminal degree during this same time frame.
The baseline was calculated using appropriation amounts for fiscal years 1998 through 2001, and school
year data for 1998-99 through 2001-02. Over time, the uses for this efficiency measure may include
examining the cost per successful outcome for the Javits Program as compared with other comparable
programs.
