What the IPEDS Data Shows for Colleges Near ZIP 10001

This ZIP-centric view compiles every Title IV-eligible institution in the IPEDS directory whose reported latitude and longitude fall within approximately 100 miles of ZIP code 10001, centered on New York. Each college’s coordinates come from IPEDS institutional characteristics (the HD file) and are used to compute great-circle distances via the haversine formula. We found 25 matching institutions, and the closest is Fashion Institute of Technology at roughly 0.0 miles. Straight-line miles differ from driving miles, so the distance column is best treated as a proximity signal rather than a commute estimate.

Nearby institutions typically span the full ownership mix — public four-year universities, public two-year community colleges, private nonprofits, and private for-profits — because ZIP-code proximity doesn’t filter by sector. The schools on this page represent 3 distinct ownership sectors in IPEDS, which is why the acceptance-rate and net-price columns vary widely even among schools a few miles apart. Selectivity data (acceptance rate) is populated only for institutions that screen applicants, so open-enrollment community colleges correctly show no acceptance rate. Net price figures come from the College Scorecard and reflect the average cost after institutional and federal grants for first-time, full-time, Pell-eligible students.

Ten-year earnings data, sourced from U.S. Treasury tax records matched to federal aid applicants, indicates how graduates of each nearby school fared financially a decade after enrollment. Because earnings depend heavily on credential level, field of study, and local labor-market conditions, schools clustered in one ZIP region often share macroeconomic tailwinds or headwinds — which is why comparing institutions within a commute radius is more informative than national rankings. Use the sortable table alongside acceptance and net-price columns to spot schools offering favorable ROI relative to their peers in the same metropolitan zone.
