Abstract
We use data from the NLSY79 in order to compute institutional pathways (defined by educational and occupational status) of 9200Â high school graduates. Optimal Matching Analysis and Cluster Analysis generated a typology of life course pathways. Our results show that both ascribed characteristics and students' high school characteristics and resources are predictors of post-high school pathways.
