---Not available. \1\Includes students who were enrolled in college, but did not report high school completion. \2\Data for White and Black enrollment include persons of Hispanic origin. NOTE: Data are based upon sample surveys of the civilian noninstitutional population. Percents based on 18- to 24-year-old high school graduates for 1992 and later years use a slightly different definition of graduation and may not be directly comparable with figures for other years. All college students are counted as high school graduates. Standard errors appear in parentheses. Some data have been revised from previously published figures. |
