Higher education institutions using Power BI?
Hi adam-townsend,
When you said you wanted to develop reports in Power BI, would you please tell us which data source you want to connect to and retrieve data? Currently, in Power BI Desktop and Power BI Service, supported data sources type are listed in below links:
Data sources in Power BI Desktop
Data sources for Power BI service
Also based on my research, there is a sample Power BI Higher Education Analytics solution shows student persistence, retention, and graduation patterns. You can take a look: Higher Education Analytics using Power BI #1: Retention.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

Ernesto, if you work for a higher ed institution and would like to learn more about how peers use Power BI, you can register to join the Microsoft HIgher Ed Data community using this link to register :: https://aka.ms/MHEdatacommunity
this is a private group, reserved for HiEd professionals and hosted by Microsoft ... the link will direct you to a LinkedIn page and then to a form wher eyou register. once you join you can engage peers who also use Power BI for Colleague.
Best,
Jason
