The University of Texas at Brownsville and Texas Southmost College has partnered with the Voluntary System of Accountability to communicate undergraduate student experience information through a common Web reporting template, VSA's "College Portrait," which includes i
nformation such as cost of tuition, degree programs, student housing, student characteristics, and graduation and transfer rates.
About College Portrait
The "College Portrait" is organized into three primary sections:
- Consumer information
- Student experiences and perceptions
- Student learning outcomes
The data elements included in "College Portrait" were identified and evaluated based on input from student and family focus groups, feedback from the higher education community, and research on higher education from the National Student Clearinghouse to provide an accurate picture of student progress at UTB/TSC.
