Although higher education access has become more equitable, and higher education supply has become more varied, many of the 'new' students in the system are, on average, less academically ready than are their more advantaged counterparts. Furthermore, only half of higher education students, on average, complete their degree, and labor market returns to higher education vary greatly across institutions and programs. Thus, higher education is at a crossroads today. Given the region's urgency to raise productivity in a low-growth, fiscally constrained environment, going past this crossroads requires the formation of skilled human capital fast and efficiently. 'At a Crossroads: Higher Education in Latin America and the Caribbean' contributes to the discussion by studying quality, variety, and equity of higher education in Latin America and the Caribbean. The book presents comprehensive evidence on the recent higher education expansion and evolution of higher education labor market returns. Using novel data and state-of-the-art methods, it studies demand and supply drivers of the recent expansion. It investigates the behavior of institutions and students and explores the unintended consequences of large-scale higher education policies. Framing the analysis are the singular characteristics of the higher education market and the market segmentation induced by the variety of students and institutions in the system. At this crossroads, a role emerges for incentives, information, accountability, and choice. 410 0$aWorld Bank e-Library. 606 $aEducation, Higher$zLatin America 606 $aEducation, Higher$zCaribbean Area 615 0$aEducation, Higher 615 0$aEducation, Higher 676 $a378.8 700 $aMarta Ferreyra$b Maria$01502007 702 $aFerreyra$b Maria Marta 801 0$bDJBF 801 1$bDJBF 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910792945903321 996 $aAt a Crossroads$93729476 997 $aUNINA
