| Abstract |
|
This policy report provides information from our major technical study about the influence of non-academic factors, alone and combined with academic factors, on student retention and performance at four-year colleges and universities. It highlights examples of successful retention strategies and stresses the need to evaluate the bases on which retention policies and programs are created. It concludes by offering recommendations to help administrators and policymakers consider both academic and non-academic factors in the design and implementation of retention efforts.
