Abstract
In this study we compare academic achievements of college students admitted by admissions officer selection with those admitted by general selection. Two measurements of the academic achievements considered are GPA (grade point average) and relative ascending rank of GPA. By the comparison of the academic achievements, we would like to assess the effectiveness of the admissions office selection and then provide a basis for screening good students by that selection. The results of data analysis indicate that the academic achievements of admissions officer selection students tend to be lower than those of early general admission students and also those of regular general admission students tend to be higher than those of early general admission students.
