As of summer 2005, approximately 8% of the cohort had graduated and another 47% had enrolled in the 2004-2005 academic year. Differences in retention were examined based on gender and ethnicity. Gender differences were not observed, however there was a difference in retention based on ethnicity. High school rank and ACT composite scores were not significant predictors, but first term GPA was a significant predictor of later retention.en-USThe General College 2001 Cohort: Persistence and Graduation Four Years After EntranceReport
