in other words, is there more to denialt of a plus loan and the effect on their gpa? examine howoes not a denial impacts for semester gpa or retention, the cycle -- the psychosocial implications could be illuminating. one of the questions is whether the impact of unmet need was consistent across all levels. did unmet need in the amount of sediment -- $750 have the same effect as $4000? maybe we can create groups based on $1000 increments to see if there is a difference across all levels. this paper as to the body of knowledge about what factors promote or hinder student success at age bc used -- at hbcus. this is a line of inquiry that will become more important as resources continue to shrink at the campus and federal levels. the study conserves a platform for additional research that needs to be done. i must encourage by the examination of the impact of parent plus loan denials on dillard students. african-american families were hard hit by the great recession adding to the difficulty of these families to send their kids to college print as of the recession, the tim

look at the same thing that all institutions do, gpa, school, ., class rankings. what other extracurricular in.ivities they have engaged but we also use what we call holistic evaluation. that is on the whole, most decision is relatively easy to make, yes or no. ut there are a number of students who fall somewhere in the middle where you want to -- you want to actually take into everything about that student, maybe the gpa is not that great. gpa, it ou look at the started low and in their freshman year in high school, to the he time they got senior year, it approved. so on.gn of maturity and or maybe extracurricular ctivities they've been major leaguers or innovators at their high school. we want to take all of that into account and assure the institution that we are doing to identify and find those students that we think will prosper at indiana university. host: what about students that need remedial help once they the university. what kind of assistance are they offered? well, indiana as a state, most of the remediation is carried out by the community college sys

net present value is exactly the same and so there was no judgment whatsoever to the city or to the gpait was simply a restriction of how exactly it got paid for the developers. but, unfortunately i guess maybe the developers realize that from our perspective were getting everything so they decided not to do it and that's -- i guess that's their choice but we now hear that if we approve this they're going to follow while a lawsuit and i am of the view that anyone can threaten to file a lawsuit and it happens all the time he would we shouldn't let that practice down in terms of doing what they want us to do which is to drain hundreds of millions of dollars from the belarus which would be pretty devastating to our ability to deliver the downtown extension. so, i think we should be approving this belarus as it is and moving for. i hope they don't sue. i think a very weak lawsuit but regardless, i don't think we should be bullied into getting a huge amount of critical transit money because a group of developers don't want to fulfill their obligation under this massive up zoning that the cit

three cohorts showed similar results in terms of the two most potent predicters were first semester gpa and unmet need. so having established a liability, one of the questions that came up since we had this data is what about federal policy and its impact? and one of the things that has been talked about is the stricter requirements that are attached to participant-plus -- parent-plus loans. so what we decided to do was if we had the data to look at the impact of that. so for the 2012 cohort, we were able to to obtain data, and we performed a cross-tabulation, and what we saw is that the retention rate for those whose parents were declined a loan tended to be higher than those whose parents were approved for the loan and those who did not take the loan. so this spurred more interest. and so we decided to put that particular variable into our model. and so we modeled that, and what we found is that it came out to be statistically significant. and so that plus loan denial was another thing that stood out to us which has significant implications in terms of policy because institutions are

maybe the g gpa is not that gret but if you look at the gpa it started low in their freshman l year in high school but by the time they got to senior year it improved. there's to sign of maturity. maybe an extracurricular curricl activity, they have been leaders or innovators at their high school. we want to take all of that into account and ensure that as a large state public institution that we really are doing all that we can to identify and find those students who we think doih prosperos at indiana university. >> what about students who may need remedial help once they ept the university? what kind of assistance are thee offered? >>d? in indiana, as a state, mo of the remediation is actually carried out by eied out by the e college system. on this campus, we provide very little remediation anymore.e that is actually provided externally.prov we find that our students on the whole arrive pretty well qualified for the courses of study that they are intending to undertake. if they need remediation, they take that in a community college campuses. >> how many students are taking humaniti
