Non-completion of a Degree Course and Its Effect on the Subsequent Experience of Non-completers in the Labour Market.

Johnes, Jill; Taylor, Jim

Studies in Higher Education, v16 n1 p73-81 1991

This study analyzed follow-up information on graduates (n=95) and noncompleters (n=54) of the University of Lancaster (Great Britain.) Data on family background, educational qualifications, and labor market experience suggested that part of the salary differential in favor of graduates was accounted for by other factors such as other professional qualifications.
