Hi Mark,
  Some other ideas that pop into my mind:
1. American Association of Higher Education: http://www.aahe.org/
   may have aggregate data--(colleges and universitites probably try to
collect this but wouldn't want it reported by institution) 2. Have you
done an ERIC search? Or you might want to call the research and
statistics people at the US Dept. of Education:
http://www.ed.gov/rschstat/landing.jhtml?src=rt
3. You might also want to call someone at UCSF or at University of San
Francisco for more leads. Recruiters often are the people who need to
know what their grad-to-hire rate is to attract more/better students. At
least the Registrar's Office at one of those institutions might be able
to tell you whom in administration might have some good ideas. --Pat
