One Year Out: Class of 2010 Shares Lessons Learned About College Readiness
Author: Hart Research Associate
Year: 2011
One year after graduating from high school, most members of the Class of 2010 believe that earning a college degree is “definitely” worth it, according to a survey released by the College Board, a not-for-profit organization. The comprehensive survey on college readiness and affordability, One Year Out, explores how young Americans assess their high school experience and its role in preparing them for life after graduation - be it work or postsecondary education.
