These Web Tables examine the demographic and postsecondary enrollment characteristics of undergraduates who attended for-profit institutions in 2007-08 and present the 6-year outcomes of undergraduates who first enrolled in for-profit postsecondary institutions in 2003-04. Data are presented for all for-profit students and separately for students who attended less-than-2-year, 2-year, and 4-year institutions. To provide additional context, the tables also include comparable data for students in community colleges and public and private nonprofit 4-year colleges and universities. The data come from two nationally representative studies: the National Postsecondary Student Aid Study (NPSAS:08), a survey of U.S. undergraduates who were enrolled in 2007-08, and the Beginning Postsecondary Students Longitudinal Study (BPS:04/09), a survey that followed undergraduates who began postsecondary education in 2003-04 through June 2009.
