我们考虑学生的能力,大学质量,以及两者之间的相互作用对学术成果和收入的影响,使用两个队列的大学入学者的数据。学生的能力和大学质量大大提高了所有学生的学位完成率和收入。我们发现学生能力和大学质量之间有意义的互补性的证据在四年完成学位和长期收入,但不是在六年完成学位或STEM学位完成。这种互补性意味着在将能力较低的学生转移到更高质量的大学的政策中,在公平和效率之间进行某种权衡。埃莉诺威斯克狄龙经济系阿默斯特学院306匡威大厅阿默斯特,MA 01002 edillon@amherst.edu杰弗里A。威斯康星州大学史密斯经济系,地址:1180 Observatory Drive麦迪逊,WI 53706-1393和IZA,以及NBER econjeff@ssc.wisc.edu
We consider the effects of student ability, college quality, and the interaction between the two on academic outcomes and earnings using data on two cohorts of college enrollees. Student ability and college quality strongly improve degree completion and earnings for all students. We find evidence of meaningful complementarity between student ability and college quality in degree completion at four years and long-term earnings, but not in degree completion at six years or STEM degree completion. This complementarity implies some tradeoff between equity and efficiency for policies that move lower ability students to higher quality colleges.
