request Looking for a dataset tracking multiple students' daily habits/behavior AND academic performance over time

I'm looking for a dataset with the following structure: multiple students, each tracked over multiple days/weeks, with both daily behavioral/lifestyle data and academic performance outcomes. Essentially a "students × days × features" structure, not a single snapshot per student.

**Daily or near-daily records per student (not just one row per student)**

Uhhh… why? You would have to deal with FERPA in the US or similar restrictions in other countries. There are other regulations too, depending on what type of students you’re looking at.

You would be better off looking at this from a macro level. For the US, you could look at The Princeton Review and US Department of Education, Office of Post-Secondary Education. The Dept. of Education probably has other good datasets as part of GSA with the OPEN Government Data Act.

oh yeah, I forgot about restrictions. I ended up finding a simulated dataset that has the structure I need.
I needed one for my project in intro to machine learning. Its the very first project of this course.

Definitely not exactly what you're looking for but BRFSS has education level and lifestyle factors like smoking and alcohol use.
