Austria is a country without college tuition fees, also allowing students to enroll in an unlimited number of programs simultaneously. Based on minimum ECTS requirements to keep enrollments valid, student performance is central. This study explores associations between student satisfaction and performance in the setting of parallel enrollments. Two hundred and thirteen students filled in a questionnaire, merging answers with performance parameters from the university's database. Multivariate regression analyses with performance as outcome and satisfaction measures as predictors were conducted on the levels: (1) unfiltered dataset, (2) one enrollment, and (3) 2 + enrollments. Performance satisfaction explained variance of grade point average and the number of failed exams on levels 1 and 2. Course satisfaction and the wish to continue studying were strongly associated with grade point average in nonprioritized programs of students with more than one enrollment. University systems worldwide could benefit from parallel programs, possibly preventing immediate dropout of unsatisfied students.

平行招生:大学生满意度与表现之间的关联

奥地利是一个没有大学学费的国家,也允许学生同时注册无限数量的课程。根据保持注册有效的最低 ECTS 要求,学生的表现至关重要。本研究探讨了平行入学情况下学生满意度与表现之间的关联。213 名学生填写了一份调查问卷,将答案与大学数据库中的表现参数合并起来。以绩效为结果、满意度测量为预测因子的多变量回归分析在以下级别进行:(1) 未过滤的数据集,(2) 1 次注册,(3) 2 + 注册。表现满意度解释了平均绩点的差异以及一级和二级考试不及格的数量。课程满意度和继续学习的愿望与注册超过一所学生的非优先课程的平均绩点密切相关。世界各地的大学系统都可以从并行项目中受益,从而可能防止不满意的学生立即辍学。
