The results presented in the report center on the following outcomes:  \n1) College enrollment in the  \n¯ first fall after high school graduation  \n¯ first year after high school graduation  \n¯ first two years after high school graduation  \n2) Persistence from the first to the second year of college.  \n3) College completion within six years after high school graduation.  \nThe outcomes are presented by type of college attended, including public and private institutions, two-year and fouryear institutions, and in-state and out-of-state institutions. These characteristics are defined by IPEDS Institutional Characteristics data as of 2021-22. In-state designations are defined relative to the state in which the high school is located, not the residency of individual students.  \nThe high school dataset used for this report is based on a voluntary sample and is not a nationally representative sample of schools or of high school graduates. High school diploma data are submitted to the National Student Clearinghouse (the Clearinghouse) by schools and districts that participate in the StudentTracker for High Schools (STHS) service. In general, the participating schools tend to have greater representation among schools with higher income, higher minority enrollments, and urban locales.  \nThis report is based on the data submitted to the Clearinghouse on graduating classes of 2016, 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022. The tables below show the number of participating high schools and high school graduates included in this report compared to the total number of US high schools and high school graduates. All types of high schools, including both public and private schools, participate in the Clearinghouse STHS service.  \nTable 1.
