Abstract

Postsecondary co-enrollment, or simultaneous enrollment at multiple institutions, is becoming increasingly common among U.S. college students. This descriptive analysis documents the characteristics and co-enrollment patterns of Latinx/a/o students in the Beginning Postsecondary Students Longitudinal Study (BPS: 12/17). Findings of the study revealed that Latinx/a/o students co-enrolled at multiple postsecondary institutions at greater rates than all students combined and that persistence and bachelor’s degree completion were higher for co-enrolled Latinx/a/o students than for all Latinx/a/o students.
