Abstract | Surveys at the beginning and end of the first year of study for 489 adult students at Atkinson College found 53% planning to return. Many "dropouts" never intended to complete a degree, took fewer courses, and did not differ from returners in perceived barriers, first-year experience, or satisfaction with education. (SK) |
