Abstract:
Student drop-outs continue to be one of the perineal problems of educational institutions. Accordingly, institution managers are trying to find ways and means to curb impending issues on drop-outs to satisfy quality education. In this paper, the researcher delved into the different time series modeling methods in order to forecast the rate of college dropouts at King’s College of the Philippines-Benguet. The method considered was the Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) model. The data used in this paper was the number of school dropouts from 2005 to 2018 obtained from the school registrar which shows more dropout during the first semester than the second semester. Initial result obtained from using ARIMA reveals that the best model used is the model ARIMA which is the auto regression (AR 1), then the moving average (MA 1), with first differencing on the second semester.

Abstract:
Some of today's most successful Internet entrepreneurs didn't graduate from college. Many young people today followed the same path to pursue their dreams however ended up failing, not a surprise because 80% of the startups fail in first 5 years. As technology innovation and market competition on Internet continue to accelerate, college students need guidance and support more urgently now than ever before. Meanwhile most entrepreneurship programs offered in colleges and universities provide only general strategy-innovation-finance guidance for broad entrepreneurship while lack concentration on online startups or connection to Internet technology. We proposed a technology-business-environment model that could help guide universities in nurturing, building, and shaping their students' dreams and goals towards creating a successful Internet startup business. Finally, we demonstrated a course outline for an Internet entrepreneurship course designed for undergraduate students. Such course can be used as a core course in an entrepreneurship program or an elective course in Information Systems (IS), other sub-disciplines of computing programs, or business programs.

Abstract:
Objectives This study aimed to identify various issues and problems related to university dropout by analyzing research trends related to university dropout using structural topic modeling, and to identify various factors that affect university dropout.
 Methods A total of 86 papers related to college dropout published from 2003 to 2022 were analyzed for research purposes using the R program and R Studio. The DTM generation and topic modeling analysis, which represent the frequency of all word occurrences in a matrix, were analyzed and visualized, and the final analysis was performed using structural topic modeling.
 Results As a result of the study, the keywords associated with college dropout were academic achievement, stress, physical condition, adaptability, and career indecision. In addition, five themes were identified in the structural topic modeling: “students' psychological factors and academic achievement,” “social adjustment and integration of college life,” “career indecision and learning motivation,” “learning environment factors and sense of belonging,” and “school environment factors and support services.
 Conclusions Over the past 18 years, there has been a steady increase in the number of studies on personal characteristics, college environmental factors, and support services related to college dropout. The comprehensive results of research trends related to dropout shown in this study will provide implications for the preparation of support measures and follow-up studies that can prevent university dropouts.

Abstract:
Most of the studies in the literature have focused on finding the causes why students are dropping out but not on why they are coming back to school. This phenomenological research aims to describe the experiences of dropout college students who returned to school. Ten information and technology students participated in the research. The interview data was thematically analyzed. The results affirmed that the factors why the respondents stop attending school are financial-related, student-related, health-related, and family-related. The factors why they returned to school include family factor, peer factor, and free education. When they were dropped out, they were being looked down and adjudged negatively, and feeling down and left behind. When they returned to school, they see themselves grateful, successful, and fortunate of working in the job they want in the future. The findings of this study can be a vital input to crafting programs that can help college students particularly, those former dropouts to finish their baccalaureate degrees.

Abstract:
This study was conducted to verify, using the case of Cardinal Rugambwa Memorial University College, the widely held view that financial challenges are significant determinants of student dropouts in private universities in Tanzania. The study was conducted following a case study design. The findings were that with exception of tuition fees, financial constraints are significant causes of students’ failure to complete their study programmes. Other reasons that were found to be substantial causes of drop outs in this University College are related to students’ domestic and private reasons that include going to institutions near the home to take care of or being near their spouses. Administration related bottlenecks and gaps in guidance and counselling were also found to lead to dropout. Policy recommendations and areas for future research are identified.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to verify the development and effectiveness of a program to support college freshmen's adaptation to college life and prevent dropouts. The program was developed based on the ADDIE model, and after expert review, textbooks for each week were developed for program operation. The developed program was conducted for 7 weeks immediately after the midterm exam, with an emphasis on psychological/ emotional and college learning adaptation to support the integrated college life adaptation support of freshmen. As a result, it was found that academic self-efficacy was improved in both the first and second semesters. Based on these research results, practical suggestions were made, such as developing a program to prevent dropouts by supporting freshmen's adaptation to university life, and checking their results.
