Abstract As the cost of higher education continues to rise faster than inflation and as the pressure from community colleges offering four-year degrees increases (See: https://www.pewtrusts.org/en/research-and-analysis/blogs/stateline/2018/04/26/more-community-colleges-are-offering-bachelors-degrees), it is imperative that colleges and universities examine how they allocate finite dollars in ways that increase retention and graduation rates. This study examined correlations between certain expense categories as defined by the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) and higher retention and six-year graduation rates of first-time, full-time students attending Council for Christian Colleges & Universities (CCCU) member institutions. The results of the hierarchical regression analysis suggest that the strongest correlations were dollars spent on instruction per full-time equivalent student being positively correlated to higher six-year graduation rates, and higher percentage of total spending used for research being positively correlated to higher retention rates.

机构支出和学生毕业和保留

摘要 随着高等教育成本继续以快于通货膨胀的速度增长以及提供四年制学位的社区大学的压力增加(参见:https://www.pewtrusts.org/en/research-and-analysis/blogs/stateline /2018/04/26/more-community-colleges-are-offering-bachelors-degrees),高校必须研究如何以提高保留率和毕业率的方式分配有限的资金。本研究调查了综合高等教育数据系统 (IPEDS) 定义的某些费用类别与就读基督教学院和大学理事会 (CCCU) 成员机构的首次全日制学生的更高保留率和六年毕业率之间的相关性.
