Use the interactive map on this site to explore each state’s high school graduation requirements and college admission requirements. Some states have not set minimum state standards for entrance into public universities. In addition, you can see the metrics a state uses for accountability. These include factors such as dropout rate, graduation rate, and percentage with advanced diplomas.

You can also see if a state permits dual enrollment in high school and college classes and if it participates in the Early College High School Initiative. And you’ll see what a state’s academic and career plan is for middle and high school students.
