High School Senior Class of 2003-04: Steps Toward Postsecondary Enrollment. Issue Tables

摘要

Preparing to attend a postsecondary institution often involves many steps. In addition to academic preparation, high school students who plan to pursue postsecondary education must apply for admission to a college. For those who want to attend a 4-year institution, most also need to take a college entrance examination and obtain financial aid information. This set of Issue Tables, one of a series examining students preparation for college, draws on data from the Education Longitudinal Study of 2002 (ELS:02) to examine the extent to which the senior class of 2003-04 took or planned to take these steps toward postsecondary enrollment. It provides a summary of this set of Issue Tables.
