At the University of Sydney (Australia) the undergraduate dropout rate is about 8 percent, with a rate of 10 percent for freshmen. The proportion is unevenly distributed across subject areas, with that in the arts and economics higher than that in the professional schools. The present study concentrates on the group of students who withdraw from courses for reasons other than academic failure. A questionnaire was distributed to all students withdrawing during 1973 and 1974, and a series of rating scales for their university experiences was included. The intent was to discover if there are any systematic differences between subpopulations of withdrawing students, analyzed on the basis of their reasons for withdrawing, time of withdrawal, sex, or program year.
