Abstract: There are a number of studies that have examined the role of faculty, undergraduate and graduate curriculum, and textbook usage in real estate courses at the university level. There has been less work in the area of student performance in real estate classes. This study examines student performance associated with an advanced undergraduate real estate course: real estate investment and finance. An ordered probit model is used to examine the factors associated with student performance. The findings show that cumulative GPA and real estate major status are associated with higher grade performance. The analysis also finds that class size, the proportion of males in the course, and class level affect student performance.
