Each enabler or result criterion has several sub-criteria and eachsub-criterion is assessed by five levels from no quality to highest level of achievement. Thesefive levels have the following characteristics:Level 1: Quality depends solely on the individual (no processes) The activities depend on individual initiatives, and entire unit is not involved.Level 2: Process awakening (basic processes) Some shared responsibility with some short-term planning.

These two variables, when taken in combination, alsodistinguish the overall college experience of students. 4STEM Major PersistenceThere is little national research available on major retention.
