Abstract

This paper presents a multi-method assessment of the effectiveness of a developmental college that serves underqualified students who would not normally be admitted to a major research University. The relationship between precollege predictors and college academic outcomes was assessed. All correlations were weak with none of the precollege predictors accounting for more than 10% of the variance in any of the college outcome measures. Comparisons of retention, transfer, academic standing, and graduation rates with national estimates and University statistics are presented to argue for an overall positive effect on students regardless of their prior academic preparation.
