But among Participant and non Participant Populations:

A higher share of non Participants took grades below “C”.

FREGAS @ 19 grades below “C” out of 69 total = 27.5%

NON FREGAS @ 7 grades below “C” out of 18 total = 38.8%

73% of Fall 2011 Grades below “C” went to FREGAS Participants, and 27% to non participants.

Those non Participants had significantly higher HS GPA, significantly lower SAT Reading, and lower but comparable SAT Writing scores. They also performed slightly better in ENG 100 than Participants.

Conclusions: Existing and emerging percentages of Freshmen gradesbelow “C” in ENG 100T and ENG 100 represent multiple challenges for enrollment management and student success. Evidence suggests that noodling around with SAT Reading and HS GPA in addition to SAT Writing could result in more appropriate placement, but “placement” appears not to be the issue at hand.

Coordinated pedagogical and instructional support intervention strategies may represent our most effective improvement opportunities. Giving deeper/further evidence of that…..
