    Academically Dismissed Students: A Perplexing Problem
    (2010) Ramsey, Hilary B
    New freshman students who participated in a mandatory freshman welcome week still landed in academic dismissal status. The researcher used an electronic survey tool sent to academically dismissed students who re-enrolled through Continuing Education, the department responsible for this student group. Despite the information about services and activities designed to build a connection with campus, students still do not utilize resources available to them. Major external factors that students struggled with were time management issues, stress and developing goodstudy skills. The surveyresults yield a student profile that indicates these students should have been successful but survey responses indicate multiple reasons they were not academically successful.
