The literature indicates i ncreasing rates for hi gher education inst itution (HEIs) mergers. Researchers do not share common definitions of success for HEI mergers. One common and generally accepted definition for HEI succe ss does exist through world cl ass university ranking organizations lists of top HEIs . This study utilized WCU rankin g criteria and found that HEIs are ranked based upon research strength, teaching quality, and glob al outlook to determine HEI rankings. This study adapted repre sentative metrics used by the se ranking organizations which served as the DVs in this study. T he study adopted the Event St udy theoretical framework to serve as the lens to evaluate the data and utilized a quantitat ive methodology with a causal- comparative research design. Data was obtained from the IPEDS d atabase. The study utilized time as the within-subjects IV represented by Period 1 and Peri od 2 measures beginning the year of merger and 5 years subsequent t o the merger. The between-sub jects IV was merger status. The study sample included 80 HEI s which merged between 1988 - 2013 and 80 matching pair non- merging HEIs. The study used a two-way mixed design ANOVA to an swer the following three research questions: “Are there i nteraction effects between time and merger status upon the DVs of revenues, fall en rollment rates, and nonr esident alien rates ?” The study found no statistically significant main effects between time and merger status upon re venues and nonresident alien rates and a statistically si gnificant effect upon fall enrollme nt rates.","PeriodicalId":187498,"journal":{"name":"Mergers & Acquisitions","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121968122","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
