University Access and First-Year Performance or "There's More to a Good Party Than Sending Out Invitations."

Cameron, Helen

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Vocational Education Research, v7 n2 p1-24 Nov 1999

Transfers outperformed the other three groups, and the latter had higher withdrawal and dropout rates. (SK)
