二级认证和大学入学的年龄模式对于传统的毕业生和GED接受者来说有着复杂而令人惊讶的不同。虽然获得普通教育文凭的学生不太可能在快30岁时进入大学,但他们在20多岁时就赶上了传统毕业生。结果表明,对继续学业的年龄轨迹的差异进行调整是两组之间观察到的差异的很大一部分。然而,在上大学的类型和21岁之前进入大学的可能性方面,仍然存在重要的差异。尽管如此,接受GED教育的人进入大学的人数比之前的研究表明的要多,这种对大学的兴趣为政策干预提供了一个有用的地方,以鼓励这一群体继续上学。
Age patterns of secondary certification and college entry differ in complex and surprising ways for traditional graduates and GED recipients. Although GED recipients are less likely to enter college in their late teens, they catch up to traditional graduates in their 20s. Results show that adjusting for differences in the age trajectories of school continuation accounts for a substantial portion of the differences observed between the two groups. Important differences remain, however, in the type of college attended and the likelihood of college entry before age 21. Nonetheless, more GED recipients enroll in college than previous studies have suggested, and this interest in college identifies a useful place for policy to intervene to encourage school continuation for this group.
