Baccalaureate and Beyond Longitudinal Study (B&B) provides information concerning education and work experiences after completion of bachelor’s degrees. B&B provides both cross-sectional information 1 year after bachelor’s degree completion, comparable to the Recent College Graduate (RCG) Survey, and longitudinal data concerning entry into and progress through graduate-level education and the workforce. A special emphasis of B&B is on those entering teaching.
B&B provides information on entry into, persistence and progress through, and completion of graduate-level education. This information has not been available through follow-ups involving high school cohorts or even college-entry cohorts, both of which are restricted in the number who actually complete the bachelor’s degrees and continue their education. B&B:93/97 provided a unique opportunity to gather information concerning delayed entry into graduate education, time to completion of graduate education, and the interaction between work and education beyond obtaining bachelor’s degrees. B&B:93/2003 will expand this opportunity and begin to provide information concerning graduate study and long-term employment experiences after degree completion.
