This study was requested by the Senate International |
|
Affairs Committee. The research questions included: (1) |
|
What factors affect the cumulative GPA (CGPA) of |
|
International students at TRU?; (2) What factors affect |
|
the retention of International students at TRU?; and (3) |
|
Are Student Success Courses among the significant factors |
|
for GPA and retention? The study included 6,051 |
|
International students who were enrolled at TRU from |
|
1999/00 to 2009/10 (117 of whom took Student Success |
|
Courses). Participation in the Student Success Courses |
|
was not found to have a significant effect on either |
|
cumulative GPA or retention. The most significant factor |
|
affecting cumulative GPA was first term GPA; the most |
|
significant factor affecting student retention was |
|
cumulative GPA. Appended are: (1) Research Plan; and (2) |
|
Variables Included in the Analysis. (Contains 10 tables, |
|
4 figures and 7 footnotes.) [This paper was prepared for |
|
the Senate International Affairs Committee.] |
