Description
Anonymised data listing student who have or have not enrolled in an optional transition course, alongside selected demographic characteristics, in binary values, and whether they passed year 1 or not at a case-study university. There are 10 variables for 24,411 students, between 2017/18 and 2022/23. These data are used to demonstrate the potential value of institutional data for statistical matching methods (propensity score matching and doubly robust estimation) in higher education evaluation.
