The purpose of this study was to describe and evaluate select aspects of an enrichment program (EP) for students who participated in peer mentor/tutor (PMT) led study groups throughout the semester. The evaluation addressed three areas related to the underlying conceptual framework: (1) academic outcomes; (2) psychological outcomes (satisfaction); and (3) variables influencing retention. Overall, study group participants achieved higher pass rates, lower withdrawal rates, and positive psychological outcomes (satisfaction). Students perceived that environmental variables were more influential than academic variables in influencing retention. Social integration variables were perceived as greatly supportive. Implications for nurse educators are discussed.
