persona que abandona los estudios
someone who leaves school or college before finishing their studies
A dropout is a person who leaves school or an educational program before completing it, typically before earning a diploma or degree. This decision is often made for various reasons, such as personal, financial, or academic challenges, or a lack of interest in continuing the education. This can happen at any level of education, from high school to higher education. Those who drop out may face difficulties in finding employment or pursuing further education, as completing school is often seen as an important milestone for future opportunities.
