College Participation and Completion of Utah High School Graduates ExecutiveSummary Relying on the data from Utah System of Higher Education (USHE), Utah State Board of Education (USBE), and

National Student Clearinghouse (NSC), this report examines college participation rates of Utah high school

graduates (cohorts 2008–2017), with a focus on the gap in college participation between Caucasians and

minorities. The report also includes a brief examination of college completion rates of Utah high school graduates

(cohorts 2008–2017) enrolled in college. Keyfindings:

1. On average, 49 percent of Utah high school graduates (cohorts 2008–2017) attended a postsecondary

institution in the first year after high school graduation. The college participation rate increases to 64

percent by the end of the third year, 69 percent by the end of the fifth year, and 71 percent by the 10th

year after high school graduation.

2. In October 2012, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints announced that, effectively immediately,

men may begin serving missions at age 18 instead of 19 and women at age 19 instead of 21. This change

in age requirement for missionaries has led to a 7% decrease in college participation within the first year

and the first two years after high school graduation. However, the impact of the change in missionary age

requirement disappears three years after high school graduation (see Table B1 for more details).

3. On average, 80 percent of Utah high school graduates attended a Utah public institution, 11 percent

attended a Utah private institution, 5 percent attended a public out-of-state institution, and 5 percent

attended a private out-of-state institution.

4. On average, 60 percent of Utah female high school graduates attended a postsecondary institution in the

first year after high school graduation, while 39 percent of male graduates did so. However, the gap in

college participation rates between males and females gradually narrowed over time.

5. Comparisons between ethnic groups showed a gap in college participation based on ethnicity. On

average, Asian American and Caucasian students had much higher college participation rates, while

Hispanic graduates consistently had lower college participation rates.

6. The family income level, measured by a student’s eligibility for free or reduced price lunch, was an

important correlate to college participation rate. Specifically, the college participation rate for students

from a low-income family was much lower than for students who were not considered low-income.

7. Limited English proficiency at high school graduation was another factor that adversely affected college

participation. In other words, Utah high school graduates without limited English proficiency enrolled in

college at a much higher rate than those with limited English skills.

8. In Utah, nearly all high school juniors take the ACT during the school day for free, and data indicate that

college participation rates were favorable as long as students completed the ACT, even if their scores fell

below 18.

9. Among Utah high school graduates (cohorts 2008–2010) enrolled in college, 52 percent earned a

postsecondary degree or certificate within eight years after their initial entry into a postsecondary

institution. Specifically, 58 percent of female students graduated from their institutions within eight years,

while the comparative rate for male students was 47 percent. Additionally, students not from a low-

income family (55 percent) or not graduating from high school with limited English proficiency (53

percent) were more likely to graduate from college within eight years than those from a low-income

family (38 percent) or graduating from high school with limited English proficiency (26 percent),

respectively.

10. In addition, the eight-year graduation rates were not consistent across ethnicities.

11. The average eight-year graduation rates for Utah high school graduates (cohorts 2008–2010) enrolled in

college also showed that students with high ACT exam scores were more likely to graduate from college.
