(2017) study. The analysis looks at the student-level records across the different sources for the four school years between the fall of 2011 and the spring of 2015 to examine the patterns of discrepant information (e.g., different A-G course names and/or grades). It also examines both the availability and the alignment across sources of credits during this period.application/pdfenCreative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 United Statescollege admissionshigher education dataExamination of Data Usability Options for Assessing Eligibility for Higher Education in CaliforniaReporthttps://www.wested.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/resource-examination-of-data-usability-options-for-assessing-eligibility-for-higher-education-in-california.pdf
