Despite evidence for the academic and psychological benefits of racial/ethnic minority (REM) students enrolling in minority-serving institutions, REM college students’ graduation rates have been consistently lower for White students across institutions. The current study examined REM graduation rates and associated risk factors in a campus with no-racial/ethnic majority (NRM). The findings indicated that (1) the graduation rates of REM (Black and Latinx) students were higher at the NRM institution than national averages, with little disparity in NRM graduation rates among racial/ethnic groups, (2) REM female students graduated at higher rates than Asian and White male students, and (3) self-reported stress and registration status predicted college completion. Moreover, traditional predictors, such as household income, gender, and parental education, were not associated with college completion. A separate analysis of graduation rates at colleges high versus low in racial/ethnic diversity also revealed little graduation disparity among racial/ethnic groups when diversity is relatively high. The results support the hypothesis that REM students thrive academically in educational settings where no single racial majority exists.

在非种族/族裔多数校园完成大学学业

尽管有证据表明种族/少数族裔 (REM) 学生在少数族裔服务机构就读会带来学术和心理上的好处,但在各机构中,白人学生的 REM 大学生毕业率一直较低。目前的研究调查REM毕业率及相关危险因素在校园ň- [R acial /民族多数(NRM)。调查结果表明,(1)NRM 机构的 REM(黑人和拉丁裔)学生的毕业率高于全国平均水平,种族/族裔群体之间的 NRM 毕业率差异不大,(2) REM 女学生的毕业率更高率高于亚洲和白人男性学生,以及 (3) 自我报告的压力和注册状态预测大学完成情况。此外,家庭收入、性别和父母教育等传统预测因素与大学完成情况无关。对种族/族裔多样性高与低的大学毕业率的单独分析也显示,当多样性相对较高时,种族/族裔群体之间的毕业差异很小。
