A networked data processing system that provides an application programming interface (API) for consumer-permissioned data, such as academic data, employment data and income data. In some implementations, the data processing system enables application developers to integrate consumer-permissioned data (such as academic data) into their applications. In some implementations, the API enables a developer to focus on other aspects of a given application, while leveraging the data processing system to handle aspects of gathering and processing the source data, such as authenticating the provenance of the source data, handling user permissions, extracting the source data, reviewing the source data, verifying the source data, generating one or more scores from the source data, analyzing the source data relative to a defined purpose, providing the information sought from the analyzed data, and the like.
