The Interaction of Student and Program Variables for the Purpose of Developing a Model for Predicting Graduation from Graduate Programs Over a 10-Year Period

Cook, Marlene M.; Swanson, Austin

Research in Higher Education, 8, 1, 83-91, 78

Focus is on two areas: (1) the factors available to the selection committee when students apply for admission into graduate programs, and (2) those factors emerging after admission, resulting from students' meeting program-imposed requirements for graduation. Program variables are shown to be more important than admission variables. (Author/LBH)
