- Summary:
-
This Department of Education (ED) Tabulation presents a wide range of data on patterns of stopping out and dropping out from postsecondary education (PE) that 1972, 1980, and 1982 high school graduates experienced. The data compare how these respective cohorts differ by examining the percentage who attend continuously; they also describe patterns of stopout or dropout of PE by time of entry, educational outcome, and selected student characteristics. Data are displayed in six tables. Estimates in the first two tables were based on the National Longitudinal Study of 1972 high school seniors. Estimates in the third and fourth tables were based on the High School and Beyond 1980 senior cohort. Estimates in the fifth and sixth tables were based on the High School and Beyond 1980 sophomore cohort. Data elements used in this analysis for the 1980 senior and sophomore cohorts were drawn from the base year, and first through third follow-up surveys. Data for the 1972 senior cohort were drawn from the base year, first through fifth follow-ups, and PE transcript file. Students who delayed entry into PE were more likely to drop out than were those who entered immediately after high school graduation. The dropout rate was higher at 2-year institutions than at 4-year or less-than-2-year institutions; stopping out was more common at 2-year and 4-year institutions than at less-than-2-year institutions; males and females generally stopped out of PE at the same rate. The location of a few key statistics and their standard errors, and a discussion of technical notes and methodology are provided. (RLC)
