The vast majority of high school students plan to attend college, but little is known about the postsecondary enrollment of students who exit high school with certificates of completion or individualized diplomas. With as many as 10% of all high school completers in some states earning documentation other than the high school diploma, it is necessary to better understand the access to postsecondary education for this subset of students who exit high school. Results of this case study reflect the policies and perceptions of a stratified sample of postsecondary institutions in two states. Conclusions highlight both state and institutional variation in postsecondary admission requirements and concerns related to the social validity of the alternate exit certificate. (Contains 2 tables.)
