Description

The transition to higher education is a major milestone that presents unique challenges for students. Whether they attend a four-year or two-year institution, live on campus, or reside at home, the first year demands significant adjustment. This book by Psychology Press examines the realities of this period, addressing the difficulties students face in both highly selective and open-admissions environments. With retention rates showing that one third of first-year students consider leaving college during their first term, understanding the research and practice behind student success is vital. This text provides insights into why some students struggle to meet these demands and offers a look at the factors affecting long-term college retention. It serves as a resource for understanding the academic and personal hurdles encountered during this formative year.
