students must be “calculus ready” when they arrive. Alas, a large fraction (60.0%) of admitted students who initially express interest in engineering do not place into calculus after taking the university’s math placement exam just prior to the start of freshman year, and many of them ultimately choose another major besides engineering. This situation impacts many engineering programs nationally [1–4], and it disproportionately impacts Pell-eligible engineering students at WWU. • Students who successfully complete the second year of the engineering programs are retained through graduation at a relatively high rate (95.4%). However, retention from the point of expressing initial interest in
