Abstract	This study explored postsecondary trends of Houston Independent School District (HISD) high school seniors over the past three years, including students who participated in direct advising sessions through Launch Senior. Three cohorts of students attended HISD schools in ninth through twelfth grades, culminating in either 2017-2018 (Cohort I) or 2018-2019 (Cohort II) graduation, and, ultimately, college enrollment. Cohort III students were seniors in 2019-2020. The majority of cohort students participated in Launch Senior advising sessions. The study revealed that the more college advising students received, the more likely they enrolled in a 4-year college compared to a 2-year college, and the more likely they enrolled in a college vs. no college. The odds of Launch Senior students enrolling in a 4-year compared to a 2-year college after high school were less likely for males, students receiving special education services, and economically-disadvantaged students relative to their counterparts. In contrast, being gifted/ talented greatly increased the odds of Launch Senior students achieving these outcomes. Cohort I and II students with multiple years of dual credit and advanced placement (AP) courses had higher rates of college enrollment, with improved outcomes for students during their senior year. A higher percentage of students who enrolled in 4-year compared to 2-year colleges attained GPAs, SAT, and ACT scores that fell within college readiness benchmarks. A higher percentage of Cohort III students were college ready based on GPA and SAT performance relative to other cohorts, suggesting higher college enrollment rates for this cohort, considering no environmental changes. There was a strong positive association between the number of advising sessions and GPA for Cohort III students. Logistic regression modeling revealed major factors influencing Cohort III seniors' reported interest in college, including expecting friends to go to college and that someone in their lives expected them to go to college. Implications for Launch Senior include increasing the number of advising sessions offered to students, encouraging rigorous academic preparation; and building strong partnerships to enhance college access opportunities for seniors.
