Abstract	As educational priorities have changed, so have the standards for success. New York City has made dramatic progress reducing high school dropouts and boosting on-time graduation rates, which rose from 47 percent in 2005 to 70 percent in 2016. At the same time, changing priorities and expectations have led to an increased emphasis on graduating students who are college- and career-ready. This executive summary provides an in-depth look at high school students' pathways into and through college. This report follows multiple cohorts of students, beginning with those who entered 9th grade in 2003 and ending with students who began 9th grade in 2008. This executive summary presents how 2003 cohort progressed from the first year of high school toward college completion ten years later. Key findings are also presented: (1) Access: There have been broad improvements in college access, driven largely by rising high school graduation rates; (2) Persistence: Higher rates of college access have been eroded somewhat by students leaving after one or two years of college; (3) Efficiency: Although four-year colleges remain the primary source of degrees, increasing proportions of students have enrolled in two-year colleges, while fewer students are delaying their college enrollment; and (4) Equity: While all students have seen improved college access over time, gaps in enrollment and outcomes associated with gender and neighborhood income have persisted, and there is some evidence that differences by race/ethnicity have worsened.
