Question:

It has been established that the average time it takes for students to complete a bachelor's degree is approximately 4.8 years. In order to help students graduate earlier, a university wants to implement a first-year seminar. But before the program is put in place for all of their students, the university wants to test the effectiveness of such a program. To test the program, a pilot study was conducted by the university by first obtaining a random sample of incoming freshmen and assigning them to the program. From the original random sample, when a total of 25 students graduated from the university, they found that the mean time to graduation was 4.3 years, with a standard deviation of 1.3 years. Does participating in the first-year seminar help students to graduate in less than 4.8 years?
