[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The only data I have seen was from a few Ivies. Graduation rate was the same as everyone else. Probably because they choose from the best of the best available. The data you saw is probably from the community colleges and other small schools where students kind of pop in and out as best they can. Not really a comparison at all. And seeing as most poor Americans can only occasionally take college courses the "graduation rates" will skew strongly toward not ever finishing. Again, the top students from poor households do pretty well at the top colleges. They (both sides) are very invested in the outcome.[/quote] Most college graduation rates are measured by 6 years and in some cases 8 years out.[/quote]
