Abstract	This report examines the results of the Senior Exit Survey, which is administered annually to all graduating high school students, pursuant to state requirements. The Senior Exit Survey in its eighth administration replaces the Graduate Exit Interview. The fourfold purpose of this study is to explore seniors': (1) postsecondary plans; (2) the credentials they plan to acquire; (3) the institutions they plan to attend; and (4) the fields of study they choose to pursue. All twelfth-grade students enrolled in traditional and charter high schools within the District were included, except those enrolled in special education centers, the educational alternative outreach program, the juvenile justice center, and centers for special instruction. More than 80% of graduating seniors completed the survey and more than 95% of Non-Serving and 75% of Serving respondents reported planning to complete an Associate or higher degree. Once considered mutually exclusive pursuits, more than 80% of seniors joining the armed services reported they would be furthering their education while serving. Most Non-Serving and Serving seniors who reported they would be furthering their education reported planning to attend a college in Florida. Among Non-Serving seniors, Business Management Accounting, Finance was the most popular choice of major of students who reported they would be furthering their education, while among Serving seniors, Criminal Justice, Criminology, and Forensic Science was the most popular.
