America's Tenth Graders Postsecondary Degree Attainment is Focus of New NCES Longitudinal Dataset and First Look Report


[els2002 logo]This First Look introduces new data from the Education Longitudinal Study of 2002, collected in 2012-2013 from postsecondary transcripts of students who were sophomores in 2002.

The analyses presented in this First Look examine students' educational attainment; coursetaking and major choice; degree completion; and credit accrual.

Findings of particular interest include: eighty-four percent of spring 2002 high school sophomores had at least some postsecondary enrollment as of the 2012-13 academic year.

Among those who did not attend a 4-year institution, 12 percent attained an associate's degree, 16 percent attained an undergraduate certificate, and 71 percent did not earn a postsecondary credential.

Among those who did attend a 4-year institution, 59 percent attained a bachelor's degree (or higher), 8 percent attained an associate's degree, 3 percent attained an undergraduate certificate, and 31 percent did not earn a postsecondary credential.
