Abstract

This report analyses trends in community college enrollments. The report also examines completion rates, featuring graduation rates published by the U.S. Department of Education (based on institutional-level reporting), and the National Student Clearinghouse’s completion rates (based on student-level data). As of October 2017, the Education Department has begun releasing outcomes measures (OM) that capture program completion for a much larger swath of students than previously were measured.
