Abstract	The secondary-to-postsecondary transition is a critically important step on a student's path toward economic success. The majority of jobs in the United States continue to require some sort of postsecondary attainment, whether that be a bachelor's degree, associate's degree, or other college coursework. However, the nation loses students as they progress through secondary and postsecondary education. Further, this problem disproportionately affects students of color, particularly Black and Latinx students, who are 20 percent less likely than other students to earn a college-level credential. This brief offers policy-based solutions and examples that can support greater alignment and partnerships across K-12 and postsecondary education, promote scaling, and, ultimately, ensure that every young person has the support necessary for success.
