Abstract	The authors describe the four stages of the closing the loop process undertaken by a college of business (COB) over a 6-year period. The COB developed and offered an online, noncredit review course to help students prepare for the Major Field Test in Business (MFT). Early results demonstrated the efficacy of the course as student scores rose from the 40th percentile to the 65th percentile. The authors analyze stage 4 data to determine the relationship between the online review and MFT performance. Results suggest the impact of the online review course diminishes as overall performance increases. Assessment outcomes may be influenced by the number of Hispanic and international students taking the MFT. (As Provided).
