dc.description.abstractPost-secondary graduation rates present significant disparities for students based on demographic variables, including ethnicity and socioeconomic status. The purpose of this study was to gain insight into the unique experiences undergraduate students face as a member of their respective institutions. The Perceived Campus Climate Inventory investigated the student experiences of 320 participants from 49 four-year universities within the United States. The results of this study indicated the most robust predictor of college performance was high school grade point average. Discriminatory sentiments regarding religious affiliation and ethnic preferences for peers and faculty were explored. Recommendations to alleviate challenges associated with the pursuit of post-secondary degree attainment for diverse students were discussed.en_US
