Schmidt  \nApril 2018 P20-580  \nEducation is highly valued in the United States asa means to acquire skills and experience that allow individuals to realize greater earnings over the course of their working lives. The value placed on education is evidenced by the fact that 89 percent of people 25 years and older have completed high school, and 60 percent have studied beyond the high school level.1 The value placed on education is also seen in the increase in college enrollment over time, from 2.4 million students in 1955 to 19.1 million students in 2015.2 While enrollment has increased over the long run, enrollment has increased and decreased within this long-term increase. This report provides an overview of postsecondary enrollment during one of these periods, covering the years preceding and since the Great Recession of 2007 to 2009, using data collected in the Current Population Survey (CPS) . It examines the postsecondary enrollment of the adult population by demographic and social characteristics, such as age, sex, and race and Hispanic origin.  \n1 “Table 1. Educational Attainment of the Population 18 Years and Over, by Age, Sex, Race, and Hispanic Origin: 2016,” March 2017,\u003C[www.census.gov/data/tables/2016/demo/education-attainment](www.census.gov/data/tables/2016/demo/education-attainment)[ ](www.census.gov/data/tables/2016/demo/education-attainment)[/cps-detailed-tables.html](/cps-detailed-tables.html)>, accessed on January 24, 2018.  \n2 “CPS Historical Time Series Tables on School Enrollment, Table A-1 .

A second focus of this report is to consider change in the types of students who entered college in terms of their precollege roles, examining change in the number of college students who were previously enrolled in high school or college, or who were not enrolled in school in the prior year.
