Quick Query System Information
The Quick Query System is the new online application developed by the CSRDE team that helps a member institution create reports using CSRDE data all online. There are three reporting tools that are part of the Quick Query System. The level of institutional membership determines which tools are accessible. The tools are described below.
- Peer Report Tool (available to all participating members).
This tool is available to institutions that provide data for our reports. With this tool, you are able to create a peer report on self-selected peers right at your fingertips. This tool produces the same type of Excel report that the CSRDE office created in previous years, but now instead of faxing in a form and waiting 2 to 3 weeks for us to produce your report, you can have it in an instant!
The Peer Report Tool can also help you in selecting institutions with similar characteristics as your institution. There are four drop down menus that work as filters. When you select one of the options, the lists of institutions will be narrowed down to schools matched on that option. Each filter works separately on the list of institutions. You can also click in the box with the schools and start typing the name of the institution that you want to include in your report. This will direct you toward the school you are looking for since the list is in alphabetical order.
Important note: Remember that each institution is only allowed one complimentary peer report. Any additional peer reports require an extra fee, so make sure you have selected the correct institutions for your report before clicking the “Get Peer Details” button.

- Summary Report Tool - Select by Category (available to Level 2 and 3 members).
A summary report can be created by specifying certain options in different categories. You can click on a category and a form will be brought up with options to select. For example, one of the optional categories is “Control” and “Carnegie”. You can choose whether you want Public or Private, and the specific Carnegie Classification that you would like to see.
Once you have selected your options, click Submit, and you will receive an Excel report of summary values for all the institutions in the CSRDE database that match the specified options.
There is no limit to the number of summary reports that you may create using the Summary Report Tool.

- Adhoc Summary Report Tool (available to Level 3 members).
The final tool in the Quick Query System is similar to the Summary Report Tool – Select by Category, but with this tool you can create summary reports on self-selected peers. You can choose your institutions just like in the Peer Report Tool, but you will receive summary information only, without the details.
Again just like the other Summary Report Tool, you can create an unlimited number of these summary reports. The only restriction is that you must select between 5 and 20 institutions.
