Reason behind high college dropout rates
According to OECD Data, 31% of students drop out of college for various reasons. Let's find out why.
#1 Financial Reasons
Most students drop out of college because of rising tuition fees, higher fee is a big concern. Learners from rural areas often don’t even consider higher education because of financial considerations.
#2 Family or Medical Issues
Because of illness, family emergencies, or other personal reasons many students have to drop out. The lack of flexibility in regular colleges left no other option.
#3 Academic Challenges
Many students are not able to adjust to coursework, or find themself misfit for the course they choose. Improper career counseling is the big reason.
#4 Institution Factors
Many students make wrong choices in choosing the university. Because of high competition in tier 1 colleges, they choose tier 2 or tier 3 colleges, resulting in drop out.
