Transitions and Expectations for Post-secondary Education
The MPHEC collaborated with the departments in the three Maritime provinces responsible for K/P-12 education to conduct a survey of high school students to learn about their expectations for higher education. Comparing the findings to university graduate outcomes survey data and information on university student pathways illustrates how well those expectations align with reality. A total of 5,219 grade 12 students from 175 high schools responded to the online survey in May/June 2014.
