Abstract:

Columbus State University’s (CSU) first-time full-time freshman six-year graduation rate has improved from 32.4% for cohort 2011 to 39.5% for cohort 2013. However, the one-year freshman retention rate has declined from 74% for cohort 2016 to 72% for cohort 2018.

CSU will explain strategies used to improve academic success for these under prepared students
