compared it to a controlgroup of their peers. Specifically from data, we can make the following conclusions.The GPAs of the Scientific Village (SV) cohort (Group A) were compared with those of their non-SV peers (Group B) to determine the effect of participation in the program. GPA comparisons ofparticipants and corresponding STEM groups at the College are shown in Table 1 for spring 2017to spring 2019 semesters and graduates. Two sided t-tests after checking equality of variances withF-tests are presented. From the table, it can be seen that all of the p-values of equality of variancestests are greater than 5% significance level. Thus, based on the sample data, we fail to reject thenull hypothesis that Ho: σA2= σB2. Pooled t-tests are then used
