The Priority of Freshman Needs Prior to College Attendance.

Moore, Leila V.; And Others

College Student Journal, v15 n1 p81-87 Spr 1981

In two surveys of freshmen students, academic needs were found to be of primary importance, compared to social and personal needs. Results provide clear direction for orientation program planners to emphasize the student's academic experience, with indications that a higher retention rate for the institution may result.
