Abstract	This article focuses on the research being conducted by Cambridge International Examinations (Cambridge) to ensure that its international assessments prepare students as well as other acceleration programs for continued study in U.S. colleges and universities. The study, which builds on previous freshman GPA data modeling work using data supplied by Florida State University, is designed to investigate the impact of the Cambridge program on various aspects of university engagement.
