Approximately 2,182 higher education institutions within the 50 states were surveyed regarding graduation outcomes for 4-year and 2-year degree seeking students. A cohort of students starting their 4-year degree in 2016 and a cohort of students starting their 2-year degree in 2019 were selected. The survey monitored the number of students within the cohort who transferred out and who were still and no longer enrolled.
