And nationally... • A new study finds CSF Alumni enroll in and earn degrees from college. Dr. Eric Bettinger and a team from Stanford University recently analyzed the college enrollment, persistence, and graduation rates of a sample of more than 5,000 CSF New York and CSF of Omaha alumni who used scholarships between 1999 and 2010 and were old enough to have graduated from high school. Despite coming from socio-economic backgrounds associated with much lower rates of college enrollment and graduation, CSF alumni enroll and persist in college and earn degrees at rates similar to or higher than the general population and much higher than low-income students generally, according to the study.
