Abstract: Numerous studies have shown that academically promising students often fail to make satisfactory progress in college. Both society and the individual suffer when potentially able individuals do not develop their skills to the extent that the larger community is provided with capable professional leadership. This study attempts to determine the rationale which explains academic underachievement at Appalachian State University.
