1 Graduation Initiative 09/14/2011NISTS STEM Transfer Success Conference1 Native vs. Transfer Students at the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA): Rates of Persistence and Graduation among Biology Majors Shannon Rios, M.A. Retention and Graduation Analyst

2 Graduation Initiative 09/14/2011NISTS STEM Transfer Success Conference2 Agenda Background of UTSA Purpose of study Data extraction Data analysis Questions for further study

3 Graduation Initiative 09/14/2011NISTS STEM Transfer Success Conference3 Profile of UTSA Established 1969 3 campuses, 8 colleges Mission of access and excellence 30,258 students 2 nd largest in UT System 93.9% in-state students – (47.4% Bexar county) HSI –44.1% Hispanic –33.1% White –8.1% African American –5% Asian/Pac. Islander –7.3% Int’l or unknown 49.8% F, 50.2% M 69.5% of students attend full-time Source: UTSA Office of Institutional Research (Fact Book, Fall 2010)

4 Graduation Initiative Study Questions How many transfer students are in Biology? How do their rates of progress and graduation compare to native students? Is there a connection between gatekeeper course grades and graduation? What questions are still unanswered? 09/14/2011NISTS STEM Transfer Success Conference4

5 Graduation Initiative Data Extraction and Analysis Admitted student data pulled from 2002-2004 –Student type and admit semester –Graduation status and semester –Grades for three gatekeeper courses Data analyzed for progress through gatekeeper courses and graduation –Grades and number of attempts in courses –Degree awarded and time to degree 09/14/2011NISTS STEM Transfer Success Conference5
