3 PIC Study - College Enrollment and Outcomes for BPS Graduates Postsecondary Enrollment Any enrollment activity 2-9 years after h.s. graduation Type of institution in which enrolled (public/private, 2 yr./4 yr.) anywhere in US Postsecondary Graduation Any post-secondary degree/certificate Type of institution from which degree was earned Type of degree received Recent Postsecondary Enrollment Activity Enrollment activity at any institution Type of post-secondary institution in which enrolled Data Source: National Student Clearinghouse
4 Key Findings All colleges and universities Only 35% who enrolled in 2000 had completed degrees seven years later (24% excluding exam school graduates) African American and Hispanic graduates earned degrees at half the rates of Asian and white graduates (28% and 24% vs. 53% and 52%) 145 women earned degrees per every 100 men ( 204/100 African American, 239/100 Hispanic, 107/100 Asian, 101/100 white) Community colleges 34.5% attended community colleges as some point (39.8% African American, 42.9% Hispanic) 12.5% who began at a community college earned a degree either from the college initially attended or elsewhere
5 Boston Higher Education Partnership Study Question How are Boston Public School graduates doing academically during their early college years? Measures Persistence enrollment status Progress credits earned Performance GPA Data sources Transcripts of 946 recent BPS graduates Began college full-time in Fall Massachusetts colleges & universities Focus groups with students and staff 5
6 Key Findings 1. Students who were better prepared academically and attend more selective colleges persisted continuously full-time at higher rates. 2. Defining persistence to include less than full-time enrollment, the intention to pursue college goals remained high for students at less selective institutions. 3. How a student chose to persist made a difference in their academic success. Less consistent persistence results in less academic success. 6
7 Two- Year Persistence Categories by College Selectivity Group 4-yr Less Selective Total 4-Yr Medium Selective 4-yr More Selective Continuously Enrolled FT Continuously Enrolled PT Intermittent Non-Persist 7
8 Satisfactory Achievement by Persistence Category and College Selectivity Continuously Enrolled FT Continuously Enrolled PT Intermittent Non- Persist 8
9 Outcomes for Developmental vs. Non-Developmental Students Non-developmental course students were far more likely to be academically successful 83% of non-developmental students persisted compared with 64% of developmental students 91% of non-developmental students achieved at satisfactory levels compared with 74% of developmental students 55% of non-developmental students were on track to graduate in 100% time compared with 21% of developmental students
10 Advice from graduates who persisted consistently Study hard and well Schedule your time realistically and manage it efficiently Ask your professors and advisor for help Use the college s academic support services Get to know lots of different people on campus Participate in summer bridge and first-year programs. Stoutland and Coles "Who s Making It." 10
