Abstract
AbstractThe pupose of this investigation was to explore the relation of student residence to academic achievement in five colleges of an upper Midwest university. Students were matched on the basis of ACT composite standard scores and class standing. The results showed that the combined group of students residing in residence halls had higher mean grade point averages (GPA’S) than did students residing at home or off-campus. When the data were analyzed by individual college, however, non-significant differences were found, although some trends were noted. Significant differences were found in GPA and ACT scores among the total groups of students enrolled in the five colleges.
