New York City Goes to College: New Findings and Framework for Examining College Access and Success. Technical Appendices
Black, Kristin; Coca, Vanessa
Research Alliance for New York City Schools
As educational priorities have changed, so have the standards for success. New York City has made dramatic progress reducing high school dropouts and boosting on-time graduation rates, which rose from 47 percent in 2005 to 70 percent in 2016. At the same time, changing priorities and expectations have led to an increased emphasis on graduating students who are college- and career-ready. The full report provides an in-depth look at high school students' pathways into and through college. The technical appendices presented in this report, include: (1) Appendix A: Data & Sample: This appendix describes the data, sample, and key measures used in the full report; (2) Appendix B: Using the Median Neighborhood Income Measure: This appendix describes the median neighborhood income variable, which is used throughout the full report; (3) Appendix C: Collage Pathways: The tables in Appendix C show college pathways data for the 2003 and 2004 cohorts, including for specific subgroups of students; and (4) Appendix D: Persistence Measures: The table presented in Appendix D displays the difference between continuous and non-continuous persistence in each of the pathways and overall for the 2003 and 2004 cohorts.
