Attrition
Attrition:

Our attrition rate, which is interpreted as the total percent of students who have exceeded the 7-year limit for matriculation or resigned from the Program was 7.5%.  Of this number 4.6% resigned in good standing and took positions as school psychologists for financial and/or personal reasons.  In fact, students in the distance past were counseled into another program we have never failed to retain a student.  The remainder of the students within the "attrition group" exceed or are about to exceed the seven year rule.  All students have completed the program with the exception of the dissertation.
