This study examined the persistence and withdrawal rates of two-year private college freshmen with transfer plan to four-year colleges in korea and explored which institutional characteristics influence student attrition. In 1998 and 1999, the final study afier a pilot study in 1996 was undertaken in 17 schools with a cohort of 1,587 students. This study involved questionnaires with the same questions. Among them the withdrawer with transfer plan totaled 5 students and the persisters with transfer plan were 373 students. Results indicated that: (1) gender and the level of mother's occupation are the defining characteristics in two-year private college freshmen with transfer plan; (2) male students and students with mother holding the upper level of occupation are more prevalent characteristics of non-persisters; (3) two institutional independent variables had significant effects on persistence-interaction with faculty, academic integration into college; (4) there was a greater tendency to persist among female students, which appeared to be influenced by more interaction with faculth; (5) academic integration into the institution was a significant influence for both females and males; and (6) male students preparing to enter a four-year college seemed to be more influenced by the variables which college cannot control, it is assumed; this is not so for female transfer.
