STEM degree codes: 0 = non-STEM, 1 = STEM; 6-yr graduation codes: 0 = did not graduate, 1 = graduated within 6 yr. Course variables (e.g., Course 1 only) were dummy coded to indicate level of participation in FRI = 1 versus otherwise = 0 (reference group was the non-FRI matched control group).
aFor dichotomous variables (e.g., STEM degree: 0 = non-STEM degree, 1 = STEM degree).
bSix-year graduation represents graduation rate of those who started at UT Austin on/before 2009.
cSample size for FRI course work (e.g., FRI group N = 2449) broken down by subgroup (e.g., Course 1 only, n = 416).
