University Selectivity and Returns Premium: Evidence from Kazakhstan
Kemelbayeva, Saule
Education Economics, v30 n3 p270-302 2022
More selective universities are presumably better in quality and expected to provide better labour market outcomes for their graduates -- returns premia. However, various empirical applications have found that part of it should be attributed to selectivity. Using the data on recent higher education graduates' entry salaries with a fuzzy regression discontinuity design, this study reveals no apparent difference in the returns one gains by attending more selective and relatively better-funded national universities as opposed to other public HEIs in Kazakhstan, at least during the first year in employment, which may potentially call for a reconsideration of the associated policies.
