About ASSOCIATION OF AMERICAN UNIVERSITIES DATA EXCHANGE
The Association of American Universities Data Exchange (AAUDE) is a membership‑based public service organization that coordinates the annual exchange of institutional data and prepares benchmarking and analytic reports for research universities and affiliated institutions. Its membership is comprised of AAU institutions and selected non‑AAU affiliates; participating institutions contribute and use aggregated and confidential data to support institutional research, planning, and policy decisions. AAUDE operates as a tax‑exempt 501(c)(3) organization and is hosted administratively through university channels; it publishes public overviews, executive summaries, and topic‑specific reports (including economic impact studies and selected university indicators) used by institutional research offices. Recent Form 990 filings show continued activity and financial stability through the 2024 filing year, indicating ongoing operations serving its membership and data exchange functions.
