ACADEMICALLY DEFICIENT READMITTED STUDENTS: ARE THEY REALLY A HIGH RISK?
As with most institutions of higher learning, the College of Charleston has been making efforts to attract and retain qualified students. As part of a larger plan, academically deficient students who sought readmission were examined closely. The intent here was that some of their problems and solutions would result in potential solutions for other target populations in the future. This article details the process and the results of the study.
