Sažetak
The Bologna process and the introduction of national matriculation implemented major changes in higher education institutions. The abolition of entrance exams at most faculties, as a consequence of introduction of national matriculation, simplified and accelerated enrolment in faculties. Due to extensive preparations for the implementation of national matriculation and numerous checks that students had to pass in order to successfully pass the national matriculation exam, it was assumed that the enrolled students would achieve better results than the previous generation. The motivation for this research is to determine whether this was the case, that is, is the generation of students that took the national matriculation exam more successful than the previous generation of students, which did not. This paper aims to investigate whether the introduction of national matriculation has resulted in enrolment of higher quality students, who achieve higher average grade, better pass rate and completion within the stipulated duration of studies, than the students enrolled prior to introduction of national matriculation. The indicators that are analysed in this paper are interest in the study, structure of enrolled students (vocational school or gymnasium, gender), pass rate per study program, average grade, pass rate and average grade in relation to the number of exam attempts, analysis of the number of graduates, average length of study and average grade of the entire study. The research was conducted using the available data on the 2009/10 generation of full-time students of undergraduate university studies, as the last generation of students who were enrolled in the first year of study without national matriculation, and the 2010/11 generation, as the first generation of undergraduate university studies that was required to pass the national matriculation exam and was enrolled in the first year of study based on the results of the national matriculation exam.
