revealed that students developed a considerable degree of spatialthinking throughout the course of the semester when compared with undergraduate students inother disciplines [8]. Similar to its relationship with undergraduate academic success, spatialability is a profitable asset for professionals engaged in STEM careers [7], [9]. Research hasfound that spatial ability can be learned through targeted interventions, exposure to spatiallanguage, and participation in spatial activities [10], [11]. Furthermore, once learned, spatialability is malleable and can be maintained and developed over time [12]. This is particularlypromising in the context of developing targeted interventions aimed at fostering spatial ability.Of particular interest to the

Looking back at these experiences have made me seek outopportunities to try to improve college access, especially for students who, for whatever reason,are not encouraged to consider how their unique skills and experiences might align well withfuture engineering and technical careers.

This weighing aims toreduce the importance that a single selection test may have and so provide opportunities tounderrepresented groups in higher education. However, this system has been widely criticizedfor not fulfilling its central aim and worse still in that it increases discrimination against studentswho come from less favored sectors. In Engineering degrees in particular, the SUA calculates thescores by assigning different weights to the ranking, which may vary from 10% to 40%depending on the engineering career considered.This present study seeks to analyze the different sources of information that the SUA systemuses to determine the correlation that

But what became clear through the interviews was thatmany of these students felt they belonged long before beginning their higher education journey,even though they had just begun their engineering career.

internationally, STEM majors experience more attrition and longer times tograduate than other majors. The high rate of attrition has been documented from a public policystandpoint at various universities in the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, and SouthAfrica [1]. The cost of attrition is significant. Students who attrite are personally burdened by thecost of a partial education when the costs of college are rising [2] and by the loss of income froma lucrative STEM career.
