Why Students Fail to Finish University (Current Dilemma: To Study or to Work?)
Original language description
The objective of this article is to verify the importance of the reasons for dropping out of university before finishing a degree. The second objective is to identify whether the reasons for dropping out differ between full-time and part-time students. The survey group consisted of 643 students of a public university in the Czech Republic, the selected method was written interviews. The Friedman ANOVA analysis showed statistically significant differences among the submitted 11 reasons which can probably lead to dropping out of university. Reasons marked most frequently by respondents were: insufficient willingness to overcome obstacles (laziness); preference of working to studying and lack of skills ("they cannot manage"). Apart from this, the Mann-Whitney test was used to verify whether there are statistically significant differences between full-time and part-time students. It was established that there are statistically significant differences in 10 items (of the total of 11).
