Forecasting First-Term Collegiate Success From Pre-Enrollment Information
Abstract
Admissions officials are asked to make decisions about individual students based upon the information that can be known prior to enrollment. In the present study we show that first-term success of previous students from a given high school can be a significant predictor of first-term success of individual students after accounting for other variables; such as standardized test scores and class standing; that are also known prior to initial enrollment.
