Title of Collection: 2016–17
Baccalaureate and Beyond Longitudinal
Study (B&B:16/17) Field Test Data
Collection.
OMB Control Number: 1850–0729.
Type of Review: A reinstatement of a
previously approved information
collection.
Respondents/Affected Public:
Individuals and Households.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 4,417.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 977.
Abstract: This request is for the
National Center for Education Statistics
(NCES) to conduct a field test of the
2016/17 Baccalaureate and Beyond
Longitudinal Study (B&B:16/17). The
B&B studies of the education, work,
financial, and personal experiences of
individuals who have completed a
bachelor’s degree at a given point in
time are a series of longitudinal studies.
Every 8 years, students are identified as
bachelor’s degree recipients through the
National Postsecondary Student Aid
Study (NPSAS). B&B:16/17 is the first
follow-up of a panel of baccalaureate
degree recipients identified in the 2015–
16 NPSAS, and part of the fourth cohort
(B&B:16) of the B&B series. The primary
purposes of the B&B studies are to
describe the post-baccalaureate paths of
new college graduates, with a focus on
their experiences in the labor market
and post-baccalaureate education, and
their education-related debt. B&B also
focuses on the continuing education
paths of science, technology,
engineering, and mathematics (STEM)
graduates, as well as the experiences of
those who have begun careers in
education of students through the 12th
grade. Since graduating from college in
2014–15 for the field test, and 2015–16
for the full-scale study, members of this
B&B:16 cohort will begin moving into
and out of the workforce, enrolling in
additional undergraduate and graduate
education, forming families, and
repaying undergraduate educationrelated debt. Documenting these choices
and pathways, along with individual,
institutional, and employment
characteristics that may be related to
those choices, provides critical
information on the costs and benefits of
a bachelor’s degree in today’s workforce.
B&B studies include both traditional-age
and non-traditional-age college
graduates, whose education options and
choices often diverge considerably, and

allow study of the paths taken by these
different graduates. The results of this
field test will inform the B&B:16/17 fullscale data collection.
