More than 100,000 adults with some college but no degree (SCND) have reconnected with higher education at Tennessee community colleges over the past decade. However, only 21% graduated within three years of reconnecting. In Pathways to Success for Students with Some College, No Degree, the Tennessee Board of Regents (TBR) seeks to build a body of evidence about the challenges that returning adults face, the strategies that promote their success after they return, and the data that can be leveraged to support their success. This paper draws attention to employment outcomes for SCND adults who reconnected with higher education at Tennessee community colleges. This paper builds upon existing research and provides a descriptive exploration of employment outcomes for SCND adult Tennesseans, focusing especially on those who reconnect with college after time away. Key findings include: (1) Five years after departing college, Tennessee community college graduates earned nearly $14,000 more each year than SCND non-graduates; (2) When SCND adults reconnected with community colleges in Tennessee and earned a postsecondary credential, their employment prospects improved; and (3) SCND Tennesseans who reconnected with college and attained a postsecondary credential earned $10,000 more, on average, than they earned before re-enrolling.
