Exit or Withdrawal Type Updated Element

Definition

The circumstances under which the student exited from membership in an educational institution.

Usage Notes

The purpose of this element is to track the circumstances related to an exit from membership. There are multiple use cases related to this element, some for longitudinal purposes, some for funding, some for live transactional systems. The descriptions and definitions are intended to meet those needs. Four often misunderstood options are explained below:
1. 09999 - Other. Other is intended to indicate that CEDS has not yet defined a circumstance in which this exit occurred.
2. 03505 - Exited. Unlike "09999 - Other", the "Exited" option is intended to be used for administrative purposes such as a mid-year grade level change.
3. 01931 - Not enrolled, unknown status. This is to be used as a placeholder while additional exit information is collected or to track students who are known to have Discontinued Schooling (dropped out) separate from students whose whereabouts are unknown.
4. 03502 - Not enrolled, eligible to return. Different than the 01931 code, the status of this student is not unknown; however, the institution is required to exit the student from membership for an extended period. It is expected the student will reenroll in the same institution following this extended period.
