An Analysis on Wage Effect to Korean College Quality

초록/요약

This paper examines the returns to college quality in terms of college entrance examination score. In comparison with transfer students and non transfer students, I especially want to find that which side is higher on the returns to college quality. Using the Korean Employment Information Service data, I find a systematic relationship between future earnings and college quality. In detail, transfer students is smaller than non-transfer students on the returns to college quality. This is because transfer students have the lower educational chance in the initial institutions. And I find that in the probability of regular job type on the college quality, transfer students are lower than non-transfer students. But both transfer and graduation quality have significant positive effects on the postgraduation earnings. As the previous evidence tells us that it is consistent with human capital theory of educational attainment, which predicts positive returns to quality for all institutions attended.
