Understanding Dual Enrollment: Factors Affecting Matriculation into the Host Institution
Kristy L. Tipton
ProQuest LLC, Ed.D. Dissertation, Ashland University
This dissertation investigates the factors influencing the matriculation trends of former College Credit Plus (CCP) participants to host institutions in Ohio, utilizing Perna's (2006) College Choice Model as a framework. The study examines variables such as course modality, geographical proximity to the host institution, course load, and grade point average, utilizing three postsecondary institutions: a private 4-year, a public 4-year, and a 2-year community college. High school cohorts from the past three graduating years (2021-2023) were analyzed to provide current insights into dual enrollment trends. Significant associations were found between matriculation and variables of course modality, course load, and proximity. The study's limitations include a restricted sample size, exclusion of homeschooled and online high school students, and a focus on a limited set of variables. Future research should explore additional qualitative and quantitative factors influencing dual enrollment students' college choices, including socioeconomic status, parental education levels, and institutional characteristics.
