Predicting Graduate Academic Success from Undergraduate Academic Performance: A Canonical Correlation Study
Jamal Abedi
University of California at Los Angeles
One of the major criteria employed in selecting graduate students is undergraduate GPA; generally, applicants with low GPAs will not be accepted at high quality graduate schools. This study, which uses a canonical correlation technique, examined the efficiency of the undergraduate GPA as a predictor of graduate academic success and compared it with other predictors. The results indicated that undergraduate GPA was not a good predictor of graduate academic success.
