SACLA, EDELYN G. APRIL 2007. An Assessment of Transferee of College of
Agriculture, Benguet State University. Benguet State University, La Trinidad, Benguet.
Adviser: Jovita M. Sim, MSc
ABSTRACT
The study was conducted to determine the trends in the transferee out rates from
1998-1999. For the College of Agriculture at Benguet State University. The study also
determined the general profile of the transferee out according to gender, degree programs,
year level, semester and province.
Data were gathered from the student records of 1998-2005 at Registrar’s Office.
The finding shows that from 1998-2005, the Bachelor of Science in Agriculture
has the highest rate of transferee out while the Bachelor of Science in Development
Communication had the lowest rate. Majority of the transferee out are females, are
second years and occur more during the first semester. Majority of transferee out came
from province of Ilocos Region followed by students Ifugao.
It is therefore recommended that Benguet State University school should conduct
orientation seminars and other activities that will help the freshmen in their transition.
From the high school to college in order to minimize number of transferee out.

INTRODUCTION
Rationale
Due to the continuing tuition hikes, more students enrolled in private college and
universities are forced to transfer to state institutions. But the State Universities and
Colleges (SUC’s) are faced by similar problems not only are they few and their
enrolment quotas is limited but they are also haunted by increase in tuition and other fees
thus, forcing many state scholars to leave (Ramota, 2005).
The transfer of college students enrolled in private schools to state universities
and college over the last decades had increased as shown in CHED records. In 1980,
only 10% of college students were studying in SUC’s. By 1994, the number went up to
21% and in school year 2002-2003, it already accounted for 34% of tertiary population
(CHED, 2005).
Many college students have been transferring to SUC’s in recent years because of
the continuous and persistent tuition and miscellaneous fee hikes in private school as
mandated by the education Act in 1982.
This is aggravated by the low priority that government places on state education
as manifested not only by constantly chopping down education budgets but also by
reducing the number of public tertiary schools in the country. From 271 in 1996, the
number of public tertiary institutions was done to only 173 by 2002 (CHED, 2005).
There are several reasons why students leave college because, they either find
academic program too hard, lack the proper study habits or motivation, fall victim to the
temptations of the college environment, or simply for pre-existing personal reasons.

Parents can no longer afford to send their children to school because of the increase of
prices of our common needs and services. Parents will be upset to pay increasing tuition
fee of their children. Another reason from dropping out is the enrolment size, grade span
and lack of preparation from the transition of high school to college.
Statement of the Problem
The study is centered on tracing of students who transfer out at the College of
Agriculture, Benguet State University from 1998-2005. The researcher will seek to
answer the following question:
What is the rate and trends of students transferees from 1998-2005 according to:
a. Gender
b. Year level
c. Degree programs
d. Academic year
e. Province

Importance of the Study
This study is conducted to determine the number of students going out of the
College of Agriculture. The results of this study will serve as a guide for the
administrative office of BSU in planning and formulating rules and policies and also for
executives in the academe for the improvement of curriculum or developing activity that
will encourage students to finish their studies in the college or university as a whole. In
addition, this study can serve as guide for other researchers who wish to conduct a further
study along this line.

REVIEW OF LITERATURE
Importance of Education
School is place that brings today’s Filipino teenage most happiness (Erickson,
2000 as cited by Bulatlat, 2004). More than ever before school one thing that brings
them the most satisfaction.
Education as indispensable to achieving economic success, civic responsibilities
and social cohesion (Matsura, 2003). He further stresses that education’s central role in
societal development has been restated in recent thinking on economic development for
higher quality growth.
Dumantay (1998) said that through education that values can be enhanced,
integrated and inculcated in young. He further stated that the foundation of student’s
personal qualities, values and attitudes lies in the nurture/care during infancy.
College Education
Padtoc (2004) said that entering to college is an experience, but for some it may
be terrifying because of the changes and tensions.
Dacalos (2002) stated that college life besets with an overwhelming assortment of
changes. The process of adjustments is thus a serious concern of students in order for
them to cope and meet the demand of those changes.
Yapp (1970) said that anxieties of various kinds are common among college
students. A study of Spielberger (1968) as cited by Yapp (1970) found that anxiety has
little effect at the lowest and highest level of academic talent. Within the middle range of
intellectual ability, however, anxiety interferes markedly with successful college

performance. In addition, to poor classroom performance, comparatively more anxious
students who left the university for their reason.
Since the attrition rates are greater during the first few weeks of school year
amend college freshmen, the first two to six weeks is a critical time of adjustment. A
study by Cangani and Kowlaski (1990) showed that 75% of high school graduates in the
United Stated- more than in any other nation in the world- enroll in an institution of
higher education. However, 40% of freshmen drop-outs, most within the first year and
many within the first week.
Young Students Today
According to Pangilinan (2002) youth today is no other generation has had so
mush access to so much information. No other generation has faced a world so complex
and fearful. No other generation has been confronted by so much violence… violence in
all its naked mutant forms. No other generation has seen so many institutions break faith-
marriage, family, government, and church. This generation is hard put to name heroes. It
is almost an alien concept. It is any wonder that many of our young people seem so
cynical and jaded, that the future is not a concept that excites them… or that it seem so
difficult to their trust and respect.

7.14% and the overall percentage was computed at 10.25%. The highest occurrence of
transferee out was for fourth years was during the academic year 2004-2005 at 1%. The
overall percentage was computed at 3.64% and the total average was computed at 3.57%.
Transferee Out as to the Province of Origin
in Academic Year 1998-2005
Students of Benguet State University come from different provinces. But
majority of the students are from the Cordillera Administrative Region (CAR). Some are
even coming from Visayas and Tagalog region for the academic year 1998-2005. For the
period of 1998-2005, majority of the transferee out students come from Ilocos Region.
The mean transferee out rate is 4.95%. Students from Ifugao follow this with a mean
drop out rate of 4.10.

By academic year, 12.69% of students from Ilocos region transferred out in 2003-
2004. For Ifugao, academic year 2000-2001 registered the highest transferee rate at
13.04%
In terms of number of students, transferee out is clearly observed that Benguet
and Mt. Province had the highest enrolment size.

An Assessment of Transferee of Col ege of Agriculture,
Benguet State University / Edelyn G. Sacla. 2007
SUMMARY, CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Summary
The study was centered on the rate of transferee out of the College of Agriculture,
Benguet State University from 1998-2005. The study aims to determine the trends in the
transferee out rate over the years and the general profile of the transferee out according
to: a) gender, b) year, c) degree program and semester and, d) by province of origin.
From 1998-2005 there were 323 students who transferred out from the record of
the Registrar’s Office. Methods and tools used in the research was desk research using a
data sheet. Results were analyzed using frequency count mean and percentages.
Bachelor of Science in Agriculture has the highest transferee out rate because it
also has the highest population of students as compared to other degree programs. The
Bachelor of Science in Agribusiness also has 2,334 enrollees and out of these 8.21%
transferred out. Bachelor of Science in Development Communication had 1,318
enrollees and 4.72% transferred out and Agroforestry had 1,078 enrollees and 30.9%
transferred out. There were more females who dropped during the first semester as
compared with the males. On year levels there were more sophomores (2nd years) and
juniors (3rd years) who transferred out. Majority of those who transferred out came from
the Ilocos Region followed those from Ifugao.

Conclusions
Based on the findings of the study, the following conclusions were made;
1. There are greater percentage of transferee out in the DAF in contrast with the total
number of enrollees in the college.
2. Bachelor of Science in Agriculture has the highest rate of transferee out students
and the least is the Bachelor of Science in Development Communication.
3. Majority of the transferee out are females and the percentage of transferee out is
during second semester and majority are from the 2nd years.
4. Majority of the transferee out are from the CAR region because the region has
also the highest population as compared to other provinces.
Recommendations
Based on the findings, the following recommendations are made:
1. A study to trace the students transferee out, to identify their reason for
transferring.
2. A study to look closely why more females, second years and agroforestry students
transferee out is recommended.
3. Appropriate school orientation activities to all students issues possibly related to
why students transfer out.

ABSTRACT
The study was conducted to determine the trends in the transferee out rates from
1998-1999. For the College of Agriculture at Benguet State University. The study also
determined the general profile of the transferee out according to gender, degree programs,
year level, semester and province.
Data were gathered from the student records of 1998-2005 at Registrar’s Office.
The finding shows that from 1998-2005, the Bachelor of Science in Agriculture
has the highest rate of transferee out while the Bachelor of Science in Development
Communication had the lowest rate. Majority of the transferee out are females, are
second years and occur more during the first semester. Majority of transferee out came
from province of Ilocos Region followed by students Ifugao.
It is therefore recommended that Benguet State University school should conduct
orientation seminars and other activities that will help the freshmen in their transition.
From the high school to college in order to minimize number of transferee out.

INTRODUCTION
Rationale
Due to the continuing tuition hikes, more students enrolled in private college and
universities are forced to transfer to state institutions. But the State Universities and
Colleges (SUC’s) are faced by similar problems not only are they few and their
enrolment quotas is limited but they are also haunted by increase in tuition and other fees
thus, forcing many state scholars to leave (Ramota, 2005).
The transfer of college students enrolled in private schools to state universities
and college over the last decades had increased as shown in CHED records. In 1980,
only 10% of college students were studying in SUC’s. By 1994, the number went up to
21% and in school year 2002-2003, it already accounted for 34% of tertiary population
(CHED, 2005).
Many college students have been transferring to SUC’s in recent years because of
the continuous and persistent tuition and miscellaneous fee hikes in private school as
mandated by the education Act in 1982.
This is aggravated by the low priority that government places on state education
as manifested not only by constantly chopping down education budgets but also by
reducing the number of public tertiary schools in the country. From 271 in 1996, the
number of public tertiary institutions was done to only 173 by 2002 (CHED, 2005).
There are several reasons why students leave college because, they either find
academic program too hard, lack the proper study habits or motivation, fall victim to the
temptations of the college environment, or simply for pre-existing personal reasons.

Parents can no longer afford to send their children to school because of the increase of
prices of our common needs and services. Parents will be upset to pay increasing tuition
fee of their children. Another reason from dropping out is the enrolment size, grade span
and lack of preparation from the transition of high school to college.
Statement of the Problem
The study is centered on tracing of students who transfer out at the College of
Agriculture, Benguet State University from 1998-2005. The researcher will seek to
answer the following question:
What is the rate and trends of students transferees from 1998-2005 according to:
a. Gender
b. Year level
c. Degree programs
d. Academic year
e. Province

Importance of the Study
This study is conducted to determine the number of students going out of the
College of Agriculture. The results of this study will serve as a guide for the
administrative office of BSU in planning and formulating rules and policies and also for
executives in the academe for the improvement of curriculum or developing activity that
will encourage students to finish their studies in the college or university as a whole. In
addition, this study can serve as guide for other researchers who wish to conduct a further
study along this line.

REVIEW OF LITERATURE
Importance of Education
School is place that brings today’s Filipino teenage most happiness (Erickson,
2000 as cited by Bulatlat, 2004). More than ever before school one thing that brings
them the most satisfaction.
Education as indispensable to achieving economic success, civic responsibilities
and social cohesion (Matsura, 2003). He further stresses that education’s central role in
societal development has been restated in recent thinking on economic development for
higher quality growth.
Dumantay (1998) said that through education that values can be enhanced,
integrated and inculcated in young. He further stated that the foundation of student’s
personal qualities, values and attitudes lies in the nurture/care during infancy.
College Education
Padtoc (2004) said that entering to college is an experience, but for some it may
be terrifying because of the changes and tensions.
Dacalos (2002) stated that college life besets with an overwhelming assortment of
changes. The process of adjustments is thus a serious concern of students in order for
them to cope and meet the demand of those changes.
Yapp (1970) said that anxieties of various kinds are common among college
students. A study of Spielberger (1968) as cited by Yapp (1970) found that anxiety has
little effect at the lowest and highest level of academic talent. Within the middle range of
intellectual ability, however, anxiety interferes markedly with successful college

5
performance. In addition, to poor classroom performance, comparatively more anxious
students who left the university for their reason.
Since the attrition rates are greater during the first few weeks of school year
amend college freshmen, the first two to six weeks is a critical time of adjustment. A
study by Cangani and Kowlaski (1990) showed that 75% of high school graduates in the
United Stated- more than in any other nation in the world- enroll in an institution of
higher education. However, 40% of freshmen drop-outs, most within the first year and
many within the first week.
Young Students Today
According to Pangilinan (2002) youth today is no other generation has had so
mush access to so much information. No other generation has faced a world so complex
and fearful. No other generation has been confronted by so much violence… violence in
all its naked mutant forms. No other generation has seen so many institutions break faith-
marriage, family, government, and church. This generation is hard put to name heroes. It
is almost an alien concept. It is any wonder that many of our young people seem so
cynical and jaded, that the future is not a concept that excites them… or that it seem so
difficult to their trust and respect.
