PEREZ, Liliana María et al. Long permanence of students in a higher education program. sophia [online]. 2018, vol.14, n.2, pp.24-34. ISSN 1794-8932. https://doi.org/10.18634/sophiaj.14v.2i.793.
Institutions of higher education face phenomena that alter the successful course of the university careers of students; of these, long permanence brings, besides economic implications for the institution, the students and their families, a high emotional cost. In order to know this phenomenon within the Universidad del Cauca in the Speech Therapy Program, a study was carried out with the objective of establishing the determinants of long permanence of the students. The methodology was quantitative with descriptive scope; 107 students were selected through a random sample by reviewing academic records; as inclusion criteria, there were taken into account enrolled students who at the date of the study had not graduated or who postponed their studies for at least a semester; a sample of 60 students was achieved. The results showed that the proportion of long permanence, by sex, was higher in the group of men, in 22% (21); the age of the population for this condition was between 25 and 34 years, corresponding to 62% (37). 65% (39) claimed to have or have had a poor academic performance in the course of their careers. It was concluded that the causes of long permanence were related mainly to low academic performance.
