Institutional Grants: Investing in Student Retention and Graduation
Gansemer-Topf, Ann M.; Schuh, John H.
Journal of Student Financial Aid, v35 n3 p5-20 2005
This study examines how institutional expenditures and grants (student financial aid) relate to retention and graduation. It looks at this relationship over a 10-year period and examines differences between institutions with low- and high-admissions selectivity standards. In general, expenditures for institutional grants positively contributed to retention and graduation rates except at high-selectivity institutions, where institutional grants did not significantly contribute to retention and graduation rates. (Contains 2 tables.)
