Abstract

The paper aims to prove how suitable the Sequence Analysis’ tools are for studying the complexity of Italian Higher Education System. Through longitudinal administrative data of a cohort (AY 2001-2002) of enrolled for the first time at Sapienza University of Roma, this approach permits to: (1) describe the phenomena of late graduate and late performance (retention); (2) identify different type of students’ dropping out (attrition); (3) evaluate others particular phenomena (that are frequent in Italy) that can delay the students’ career (as such as intra or extra faculty mobility).
