The Long and Winding Road: Heterogeneity in the Form and Timing of Postsecondary Education Ph.D. Dissertation, Department of Sociology, University of Washington, 2016 Cohort(s): NLSY97 Publisher: ProQuest Dissertations & Theses (PQDT) Keyword(s): College Degree; College Major/Field of Study/Courses; Post-Secondary Transcripts; Socioeconomic Background Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. Chapter 3 capitalizes on detailed postsecondary transcript data to infer developmental trajectories of students' college credit completion over the first ten years since leaving high school. These trajectories allow us to take more fully into account the timing, sequencing, and duration of students' part- and full-time status as they progress through postsecondary education than prior work on the subject. I then relate students' trajectories to their sociodemographic background and to their likelihood of eventually completing a college degree. |
