Abstract:

The grade student intends to earn, the student’s prior Information Technology/Information Systems skill level and the student’s written and oral communications skill level lend significant support to student performance in the Graduate Information Systems course. The number of work hours per week, work type, and course load per semester do not have any significant negative effect on student performance. The grades in Accounting for Managers course and overall GPA are strong predictors of student performance. There is weak to moderate evidence that older students perform better than younger students. Lastly, undergraduate major has a significant positive effect on student performance in the following order: Accounting, Finance, Business Administration, other non-business major, Management, and Marketing.
