Best Answer

The Department of Education says that 73% of high school graduates do not graduate from college.

Quite alot of people don't go to college because they can't afford it, they have a good paying job already, their grades aren't good, aren't sure what they want to be when they grow up, or their parents didn't do well in college so the teenager believes that he/she won't do well either. Some teenagers also fear of moving out of the house and away from parents.

What percentage of a high school graduating class going to four-year college?

Your question is extremely complex so the answer will be lengthly. It's unbelievable that not many stats have been taken in the U.S. regarding students leaving High School and the percentage that is qualified to go to different colleges. Education and funding is lacking greatly in the U.S. Educational System. Many High School Students are simply not prepared for college. President Bush has made some changes to help students with loans (making it easier) to get through college. The system has been broken down by race and State-to-State. Many good students simply can't afford to go to college and those that manage to be accepted into college (SAT scores), often have to leave college after 1 - 2 years because of low finances. The good news is that the States has had an eye-opener and are going to be following students and giving percentages of success rates and finding out where the failures are so students can be helped more through the college process. The following information is interesting. Public High School Graduation and College-Readiness Rates: 1991
