Used longitudinal data from the 1990-1994 Beginning Postsecondary Students Survey to evaluate the frequency of part-time enrollment and the persistence of students who ever enroll part time. Between 40% and 50% of students attending part time at least one nonsummer term, and persistence was surprisingly high. (SLD)
