Academic success determinants for undergraduate real estate students

Abstract

This study provides some insight into potential determinants of students' academic success by examining gender, age, ethnicity, and performance in two required core knowledge courses as predictors of overall grade point average for a sample of undergraduate real estate students at an AACSB-accredited business school. The results suggest that student performance is significantly related to the grades the students receive in core knowledge courses that are typically taken in the earlier semesters of students' plans of study.
