What Is College and Career Readiness? A Summary of State Definitions. Bulletin, Issue 22
Conforti, Peter A.
Pearson Education, Inc.
This paper outlines each state's definition of college and career readiness and shows whether they associate with the Common Core State Standards Initiative (CCSSI), ACT College and Career Readiness System (ACCRS), or both. The general definition that emerges can not only facilitate interstate discussions on multiple levels, but also provide schools, districts, educators, students, and other stakeholders with clear objectives to effectively prepare students for postsecondary endeavors.
Descriptors: College Readiness, Career Readiness, Graduation Requirements, High School Graduates, College Admission, Tables (Data), Geographic Location, College Entrance Examinations, Common Core State Standards, Definitions
