It is also interesting to note that students who
have the residence far from the university are less likely to withdraw. An explanation could be
based on the students’ motivation. Students who have the residence far from the university campus
are highly motivated, considering either the cost of transport or the costs of renting a room. The
interpretation of this result must also be considered with caution as it is not possible, according to
the data used in the analysis, make a clear distinction (among those who have the residence far from
the place the campus is located) between those who daily travel to reach the university and those
who do not travel. The allocation of scholarships (i.e. houses next to the campus) cannot be taken
into account either
