Notes

The universe of students is confined to those who attended a four-year college at any time, thus including students who started out in other types of institutions, particularly community colleges." -- Executive summary.
  • -  "The Toolbox Revisited was designed as a replication of a noted previous study published by the U.S. Department of Education, Answers in the Tool Box: Academic Intensity, Attendance Patterns, and Bachelor's Degree Attainment (1999) ..." -- Executive summary.
