Description
The purpose of the study was: (1) to determine why graduates
of Florida public community colleges enrolled in a specific state university
in Florida; (2) to determine whether graduates of Florida public
community colleges enrolled in one state university for reasons that
were significantly different from the reasons given by graduates of
Florida public community colleges enrolling in the other state universities;
(3) to determine whether graduates of Florida public community
colleges enrolled in Florida upper division and graduate universities
for reasons that were significantly different from the reasons given by
graduates of Florida public community colleges enrolling in the other
state universities in Florida; and (4) to determine which variables had
the greatest influence. The two hypotheses formulated to test the basic and secondary
research questions of the study were both rejected. The results of
testing Hypothesis 1 inferred that graduates of Florida public community
colleges enroll in state universities in the Florida State University
System for reasons that are significantly different among the universities
within the system. The results of testing Hypothesis 2 inferred
that graduates of Florida public community colleges enroll in the four
upper division and graduate universities within the Florida State University
System for reasons that are significantly different from the
reasons given by graduates of Florida public community colleges for enrolling
in the other five state universities within the system.
