This report looks at the education and work outcomes of a national sample of bachelor's degree recipients four years after they earned their degrees. The findings are based on data from the 2016/20 Baccalaureate and Beyond Longitudinal Study (B&B:16/20). B&B:16/20, which took place in 2020, is the second follow-up in a national study of students who completed the requirements for a bachelor's degree during the 2015-16 academic year. The first follow-up took place in 2017 and asked respondents about their bachelor's degree programs and any education and work they had in the first year after earning their degrees. The COVID-19 pandemic, which started a few months before B&B:16/20 began data collection in June 2020, likely impacted the data presented in this report. Outcomes described include enrollment and employment status, federal student loan debt and repayment, earnings and other job characteristics, financial well-being, and teaching status.
