Abstract

College completion is perhaps the most commonly used metric to gauge student success. Although the overall percentage of students that finish college has improved in recent years, the gain has not been substantial. In this report, the author reviews some of the most recently available data and finds that there is substantial room for improvement at most of America’s colleges and universities.
