Peer reviewedHigher Education in Europe, 1987
A study of 9,800 Swiss and foreign students born in 1956 and enrolled in Swiss higher education found that two-thirds passed their final examinations and graduated before leaving the institution. Students in programs oriented to specific careers had a higher success rate. Very few became dropouts or perpetual students. (MSE)
