Spring 2008 Institutional Assessment

Student Characteristics and Success

The data for the University Assessment website provide a five-year overview of Wright State
students, from their entry into the University to their success while enrolled.  It begins with
demographic descriptors: how well prepared are entering freshmen? What percentage of
students are enrolled full-time?  Are most from the immediate region or elsewhere?  How
many live on campus? Answers to these questions, coupled with analysis of the diversity of
WSU Students, offer a preliminary picture of the students we serve, and ways they have
changed from Fall 2004 to Fall 2008. What these students expect from their education, their
level of satisfaction, and the success they achieve complete the picture.
