Abstract

This study aimed to identify the key factors associated with student attrition in the Bachelor of Secondary Education major in Mathematics (BSED Mathematics) program. Data were collected through an online Likert-scale questionnaire administered to 201 participants from BSED Mathematics programs across different higher education institutions (HEIs) in the Philippines. The participants included graduates, students who shifted to other programs, and students who discontinued their studies. Convenience sampling was used to recruit participants. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was conducted to identify the underlying dimensions associated with student attrition. The analysis revealed four factors: academic factors, curriculum and instruction, economic factors, and personal factors. Together, these factors explained 54.27% of the total variance, with factor loadings ranging from 0.413 to 0.783. The findings indicate that student attrition in BSED Mathematics is associated with multiple and interrelated factors involving academic experiences, curriculum and instruction, economic conditions, and personal circumstances. These findings provide a basis for understanding the factors that may contribute to students’ decisions to remain in, shift from, or discontinue a mathematics teacher education program and may inform the development and evaluation of appropriate student-retention strategies in mathematics teacher education.
