"Investigating the Impacts of College Closures on Student Outcomes" is the first of three planned novel reports, co-authored by SHEEO and the NSC Research Center, seeking to quantify the impacts of college closures on students' subsequent postsecondary enrollment and completion outcomes and to identify the policy levers states may have to support students who experience a closure. Because little is known about what happens to students after a closure, this first report is a descriptive analysis of the students who experience a closure and their longitudinal enrollment and credential attainment outcomes after closure. Using an original panel dataset constructed with student-level data from the National Student Clearinghouse (NSC), this report traces if, when, and through which education pathways affected students reenrolled to continue their education and whether they were successful in earning a credential. Answering these basic questions establishes a foundation for causal estimates and deeper exploration into existing state policies that can adequately protect current and future students from the negative effects of a disrupted postsecondary experience. Report two will include a causal analysis of closures on student outcomes, while report three will incorporate the state authorization policy context to ascertain if policy interventions can ameliorate the negative impacts of closures on students.
