The ATS Data Visualization Tool allows users to explore enrollment trends and institutional characteristics across the membership. Drawing on data submitted annually by all ATS member schools, this interactive platform presents visual summaries that support strategic reflection and research.
ATS maintains the only longitudinal dataset of its kind dedicated to accredited graduate theological education in North America. Through this tool, schools can:
- View enrollment patterns
- Assess institutional characteristics
- Explore how these data have shifted over time
These visualizations provide practical value. Schools use them to:
- Benchmark against peers
- Inform strategic planning
- Better understand their place within the broader landscape of theological education.
Researchers, denominational leaders, and the public also use the data to track trends and assess the evolving shape of the field.
These tools are designed to support insight and understanding. ATS collects, curates, and shares the data as a service to the field—not to evaluate or influence institutional decisions. Each member school should determine how to engage with the data within the context of its own values and priorities.
Notes:
- For some visualizations to display correctly, the data must include at least five schools. If your selections narrow the dataset below this threshold, the visualization may not
render in certain cases.
- Raw data are not available for download from this platform, but researchers may request access to full datasets under appropriate
data-sharing agreements.
