Abstract | This study examined 690 sophomore students who entered a small private institution at the beginning of the 2013-2014 academic year. It analyzed relationships among sophomore participation in co-curricular activities and academic performance measured by grade-point averages and persistence measured by continued enrollment. Significant relationships were found among sophomore student participation in co-curricular activities, organizational type, academic success, and persistence. Statistical analyses indicated that participation in co-curricular activities led to increased enrollment by sophomore students in their junior years. Further findings revealed that resident students participated in co-curricular activities at higher rates and were also more likely to persist.
