K-16 (education)
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
K-16 refers to a movement in the United States to bring together the various levels of education for younger students, namely between the K-12 and the post-secondary education systems, and create aligned policy and practice in examination practices, graduation requirements, admissions policies and other areas. The movement is so-named because of an insinuated continuum between the traditionally-distinct K-12 system and the two-to-four-year basic post-secondary education system that is in place in most colleges and universities (hence "13th grade", "14th grade", "15th grade" and "16th grade").
In Bangladesh, universities award degrees up to the 16th grade.
