Abstract
A growing number of educational institutions use centralized assignment mechanisms to allocate students into programs in a way that reflects student preferences and institution priorities. When the choice set of students is constrained, being truthful is no longer a weakly dominant strategy for students, so they may decide to be strategic. In this paper, we provide an identification approach to construct informative sharp bounds on the effect of the program-institution of graduation on later outcomes when students are not necessarily truth-tellers but are still playing undominated strategies.
