		Understanding our peer institutions is key to assessing outcomes within various capacities at UAF. In an updated study from April 2004, Statewide Planning and Budget Development identified 19 institutions as peers to UAF. These peers may be broken down into two catagories: 1) equivalent peers, and 2) aspirational peers. Equivalent peers are those institutions that roughly resemble our own, while aspirational peers are those institutions that our institution would like to resemble. The following is the list of UAF peer institutions broken out between equivalent and aspirational.
