Enrollment in Two- and Four-Year Colleges: The Role of Family Structures and Transitions Presented: San Antonio TX, American Educational Research Association Annual Meeting, April-May 2017 Cohort(s): NLSY97 Publisher: American Educational Research Association Keyword(s): College Enrollment; Family Income; Family Structure; Financial Assistance; Parents, Single; Post-Secondary Transcripts Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. Children in disrupted families are less likely to apply to, be accepted to, or attend four-year colleges and universities than are their peers from stable, two-parent families. We extend exploration into why this may occur to youths' decisions to attend two- or four-year schools. To test this relationship, we use new data from the National Longitudinal Study of Youth-1997 Cohort Post-Secondary Transcript Study (NLSY97-PTS). Logistic regression models suggest that financial resources--both income and college support--explain enrollment differences between single mother families and two-biological-parent families. Selectivity effects explain differences for youth living only with fathers or with neither biological parent. Differences for youth with social fathers persist in our models. |
