Abstract	Low student success rates are widespread in American higher education. More than a quarter of freshmen do not return for their second year; at community colleges, it is 41 percent. In 2019, the National Student Clearinghouse Research Center identified 36 million adults who had some postsecondary experience but had yet to earn any type of credential and were no longer enrolled, the "Some College, No Credential (SCNC)" students. This report is the third in a series that quantifies the SCNC population growth over time and identifies the levels of opportunity within each state for re-engaging SCNC students in the postsecondary attainment pipeline. This edition introduces three new metrics for tracking SCNC student outcomes: "Re-Enrollment" after stop-out, completion of "First Credential," and "Perseverance" as indicated by continuous enrollment beyond first re-enrollment. These outcomes are reported during the academic year 2020/21, both for the nation and by state, with details on student subgroups categorized by gender, age, and race/ethnicity. The data in this report shows that the SCNC population has reached 39 million as of July 2020. This represents an 8.6 percent increase from the 36 million we reported in 2019, and it has grown in every state except two. New findings offer insights into nearly one million returning students and over 60,000 credential earners during the first year of the pandemic (AY 2020/21). The report is accompanied by the national and state data dashboard with key information about SCNC student profiles and their success and progress in returning to higher education, for all 50 states including D.C. and U.S. territories. [For the second report in this series, see ED599535.] (ERIC).
