The purpose of this investigation was to analyze the actual condition of the
year 2005 transferred students in the Gongju National Univ. of Education in
terms of their demography, family background, social economic status, attitudes
toward the University, values, psychological characteristics, attitudes toward the
Research and Service Center for Students. Among 123 transferred students, 122
(99.1%) students replied to the investigation and were analyzed.
The results lead to the following implications. First, most students’ age
distribution went up due to the policy of the Ministry of Education to give an
opportunity to those with teacher certificate who have never hired since 1970s.
Second, they showed high expectancy toward becoming a teacher. Third, they
revealed significant consideration about the moral and self-centered problems in
the society. Fourth, they might be necessary for counseling or psychological
supports to survive in the campus life because the age discrepancy between
the transferred and normal undergraduate students are too wide to get along
with each other in a campus, and they were worry about survival on the
campus. Fifth, they revealed less problem about social relationships but more
worries on faculty-student relationship, which seems to be related to their age.
