shows thousands of high school graduates in Massachusetts are at least delaying their higher education in the pandemic era.
And the drop in prompt enrollment in college hasn't been evenly distributed: the rate among students classified by the state as"economically disadvantaged" has fallen to a historic low of 53%. Matthew Deninger, who oversees strategy and research at the state's K-12 education department, noted that students with lower MCAS scores were especially likely to delay college.
Delci noted that Massachusetts is"not unique" in seeing immediate undergraduate enrollment drop.
