The 1000 I talk to stand a chance-but they are typically NASA engineers or other post graduate level mathematics professionals and willing to lose in trading the first three years.

One tenant stayed 13 years until their youngest child graduated, then moved. 

After graduation, I bounced back and forth from Los Angeles to New York City, doing odd jobs.

After 25 years of co-living have now graduated to one side of a duplex.

My spouse went to school at UT and the rental there is a hold over from graduate school.  

I prefer graduate students whenever possible because they don't have time for partying, are of legal age anyway, and generally tend to be by themselves or with a partner so it's more like renting to a couple.

Get a degree in Finance or Engineering and you'll graduate with a world of possibilities. 

I don't know the %, but I would still guess 90% washout or never hit their goals, but I do see some "graduate" and seem to do well long term. 

I’m a third-year student at the University of Florida with one year left until graduation, and I just got my real estate license.

A lot of people who learn the theory of multifamily investing are often taken aback when they graduate to the real world by how deals seemingly don't work.
