University dropout provides nowadays a very broad theoretical perspective on the understanding of this concept in various higher education systems worldwide. This diversity of theoretical approaches, given the lack of a generally accepted formula for determining university dropout, renders this phenomenon increasingly studied today in the context in which the vast majority of the countries of the world are seeking solutions to reduce it. In this study, we shall discuss a number of theoretical considerations concerning the phenomenon of university dropout and from this perspective we shall try to articulate a viewpoint on the possible effects of online education on this phenomenon in Romania.
