Increasing Access To Post-Secondary Education: A Mixed Methods Study Of The Charleston Clemente Program, Mariane A. Doyle

Department of Educational Administration: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

There is an economic gap that favors adults who have higher levels of educational attainment (United States Department of Labor, 2010). With more than 9.3 million Americans over the age of 25 facing unemployment as of June 2012 and over 79% or 7.4 million of those unemployed Americans having attained less than a Bachelor’s degree (U.S. Department of Labor, 2012), the current need for college access measures and programs that address the adult population is an imperative one.

The Charleston Clemente Program provides a tuition-free course in the Humanities to economically-disadvantaged adult students for a total of two-semesters. Along with …

A Financial Aid Competency Model For Professional Development, Neil Woolf, Mario Martinez

Journal of Student Financial Aid

This research explores the competencies that financial aid officers need to be successful in their jobs. A survey of 30 competencies was distributed to 508 financial aid officers in the Western United States. Respondents were asked to rate 30 job competencies for their relative importance and frequency of use. Using exploratory factor analysis, the emergent competency model was a four-factor solution that groups competencies that are 1) External to Organization, 2) Interpersonal in Nature, 3) Related to Data Analysis, and 4) Related to Project Management. The four-factor solution showed some overlap with another existing competency model for higher education analysts. …

Barriers To Need-Based Financial Aid: Predictors Of Timely Fafsa Completion Among Low-Income Students, Mary Feeney, John Heroff

Journal of Student Financial Aid

Access to financial aid is dependent on a variety of factors, including the time of application; the earlier students apply for financial aid, the greater their access to institutional and often state resources. We use the Illinois Monetary Award Program (MAP) as a case for investigating the economic, social, and academic factors that affect application timeliness, and in turn, access to need-based financial aid. We analyze a stratified sample of 4,000 low-income students who completed the 2003-04 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and assess the relationships between Expected Family Contribution (EFC), first-generation status, and academic performance in order …

Identifying The Secret Sauce Of International Academic Partnerships: Exploring The Influence Of Entrepreneurial Orientation And Resource Commitment On Partnership Performance, Christopher Washington

Scholarship Forum 2013

There is a widespread belief that a positive relationship exists between an organization’s intangible assets and organizational performance. That is, organizations that cultivate intangible assets such as the ability to innovate and the ability to fully engage their human capital are said to execute more effectively and achieve better performance results than organizations without those abilities (Low and Kalafut, 2002). In recent years researchers have posited that the intangible assets of international partners launching franchises in new markets serve as critical factors enabling better performance results of the venture (Grewal, Iyer, Javalgi, and Radulovich, 2011). Although lacking a substantial research …

A Framework For Linking Organizational Climate And The Adaptation Of Elearning Methodologies At Colleges And Universities, Christopher Washington

Scholarship Forum 2013

Recent educational transformation efforts employ advances in information technology to augment face-to-face teaching methods and pedagogies. Nearly 70% of U.S. higher educational institutions reported online learning as critical to their longterm strategy, and the proportion of students in the U.S. taking at least one online course is at an all-time high. These eLearning initiatives stem from a variety of motivations including increasing access to education, accelerating learning in difficult subjects, and reducing instructional cost to individuals and society. Most chief academic officers at universities rate the learning outcomes for online education “as good as or better” than those for face-to-face …
