Hello All,
I am working with high school graduation and college enrollment dates. Variable is currently a string and looks like 05may2016. I want to assign terms to each graduation and enrollment date but have thousands of entries. For example, if student graduated May 25, 2016 or June 3, 2016 it would be Spring 2016 graduation term. If student enrolled September 7, 2016 or September 23, 2016 it would be Fall 2016 enrollment date. I am not sure what stata code or steps are needed to complete this.
I am also trying to match high school graduation term with enrollment term and look at the length of time between each.
