“…ECHSs are an effective mechanism for conferring free or low-cost college credit and can be an engine for equity when they save underrepresented students time and money (Edmunds et al, 2020). Yet, by creating a pipeline into the public 2- and 4-year sectors, DC programs such as ECHS can potentially exacerbate the phenomenon of undermatch, whereby underrepresented students enroll in institutions for which they are overqualified, with implications for their futures (Jagesic et al, 2021). Mr. Rodriguez wanted to prevent ECHS from predetermining the postsecondary trajectories of students who were predominantly first-generation, low-income, and Latinx.…”

Secondary–postsecondary partnership reforms have grown in scale and importance throughout the past few decades as part of the national agenda to increase college access, equity, and completion. However, little research has examined the role of the principal in cross-sector partnerships. This qualitative case study explores how one nationally acclaimed principal at an award-winning early college high school made sense of the cross-sector context and negotiated with K–12 and higher education stakeholders to maximize college opportunity for low-income, Latinx, and first-generation students. Our analysis integrates sensemaking and micropolitical theory to identify leadership practices that facilitate effective cross-sector collaboration, with implications for K–12 leadership and cross-sector partnership reform.

“…For a dual enrollment participant who first attends a 2-year institution after high school before transferring to a 4-year institution, there is more than a 25 percentage point decrease on their ability to graduate on time. Overall, there was a statistically significant interaction between undermatching and staying at the original institution of dual enrollment for both 2 and 4 year colleges (14), indicating that undermatch should be a genuine concern for dual enrollment participants.…”

As almost all institutions of higher education continue to face enrollment issues, they must consider evidence-based strategies to sustain and increase recruitment, matriculation, retention, and graduation. Policy makers and educational administrators expect that dual enrollment provides institutions of higher education an opportunity to invest early in student success by encouraging students to pursue postsecondary education while decreasing cost and time to graduation. However, findings across multiple studies suggest that dual enrollment does not necessarily always increase a student's chance for positive post-secondary school outcomes. This study analyzed data from a R1 southern flagship institution to determine if dual enrollment was a predictor for college graduation. Use of descriptive statistics, ANOVA, and stepwise logistic regression determined that dual enrollment alone did not increase the probability of graduation. Variables impacting graduation and dual enrollment characteristics are discussed and recommendations provided for institutions.
