Academic Dismissal, Readmission Conditions, and Retention: A Study of Social Science Majors.

Kinloch, Graham C.; And Others

NACADA Journal, v13 n1 p18-22 Spr 1993

A study assessed the effectiveness of an institution's academic readmission conditions on the subsequent success of about 500 social science majors. Results show specific ethnic, age, and academic experience subgroups to be at highest risk. However, success among those readmitted was most related to gender, quality point deficit, and readmission conditions. (Author/MSE)
