- Abstract
This paper reports the results of a study undertaken to evaluate the validity of requirements for admission to Florida State University's Graduate Program in Management offered by its School of Business in the Cape Kennedy Area of Florida. A multiple regression study was made using as independent variables students' undergraduate grade point average (UGPA), Graduate Record Examination aptitude test score (GRE), and age (AGE) at time of admission. The dependent variable was graduate grade point average (GGPA). The study revealed a significant positive correlation between GRE and GGPA. The correlation between AGE and GGPA was also significant but was positive for values of AGE up to approximately 29 and negative thereafter. UGPA was not even marginally significant.
