The National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) publishes the deciding data through the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) Institutional Characteristics Survey, shown in the NCES College Navigator under Tuition, Fees, and Estimated Student Expenses, and the deciding value is the out-of-state tuition for the University of California, Los Angeles. NCES reports each academic year as a two-year range, and the year in the market question refers to the second year of that range, so 2026 means the 2025-2026 academic year. The outcome is Yes if the reported value is above the value specified in the market question and No otherwise. Only the preliminary (provisional) figure from the Winter IPEDS release is used, and later revisions, corrections, or final IPEDS releases do not affect the outcome. The outcome is determined when NCES releases that Winter IPEDS data, early resolution does not apply, and if the release is delayed, resolution waits until it is published.
