Children are required in most states to attend school from the age of six or seven (generally, kindergarten or first grade) until they turn eighteen (generally bringing them through twelfth grade, the end of high school); some states allow students to leave school at sixteen or seventeen.[149] About 12% of children are enrolled in parochial or nonsectarian private schools. Just over 2% of children are homeschooled.[150] The United States has many competitive private and public institutions of higher education. According to prominent international rankings, 13 or 15 American colleges and universities are ranked among the top 20 in the world.[151][152] There are also local community colleges with generally more open admission policies, shorter academic programs, and lower tuition.
