Life happens, and that's a big factor in failing out of college. Another big reason is that students who are away from home tend to fail because they are unsupervised for the first time in their lives and they aren't mature enough to handle the responsibility of having to push themselves to do the work.. . There's also a shock to the system if the student is from a rural or isolated community and they may not be able to cope with the changes of a new, bigger place.
