Baccalaureate and Beyond Longitudinal Study: 2000/01

The 2000/01 Baccalaureate and Beyond Longitudinal Study (B&B:2000/01), conducted by Research Triangle Institute (RTI) and sponsored by the U.S. Department of Education’s National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), follows a cohort of students who were identified as recipients of a bachelor’s degree during the 1999–2000 academic year. This cohort of students was first interviewed in the 1999–2000 cycle of the National Postsecondary Student Aid Study (NPSAS:2000), the base-year study for B&B:2000/01. B&B:2000/01, the first and only planned follow-up survey of this cohort, was conducted in 2001. The survey focused on time to degree completion, participation in post-baccalaureate education and employment, and the activities of newly qualified teachers.
