To Whom It May Concern:

A study is being conducted in order to assess student attrition. For a
cohort of students, I have their enrollment data for a period of 5
terms. For example, for the fall 2001 students their data may appear
as follows.

01/FA 02/WI 02/FA 03/WI 03/FA
100% 73% 65% 59% 12%
980 720 640 575 115

Would you recommend a statistical test that would allow me to determine
if there is a significant decline in enrollment from one semester to
the next?

Appreciatively
Jon
