Retention
for an institution of higher education is an indicator of the
school's success in keeping students enrolled from their first
year to their second year. Retention rates reflect the percentage
of fall quarter first-time, full-time students that continue enrollment
the following fall quarter. This report presents both institution-specific
retention rates and system retention rates. Institution-specific
retention rates show the percentage of fall quarter first-time
students that remain enrolled at the same school the next fall
quarter. System retention rates show the percentage of fall quarter
first-time students that are not in the same institution the next
fall but are enrolled in some other TCSG institution. Retention
rates for the system as a whole and for each technical college
are presented in GOSA's web report. Results based on disaggregation
by race/ethnicity and gender are also reported. |
