Old Policy (2008-2012)
In 2007, YSU created a conditional admission policy whereby all conditionally admitted students were provided an academic coach for weekly academic support meetings.
However, because these meetings were not mandatory, many students did not attend and retention was poor.
New Policy (2012-Present)In 2012, the policy was changed, making the academic support meetings mandatory. This significantly impacted not only retention, but GPA as well (as demonstrated in the chart to the left).
