Presentation
Vertical bar graph has “Retention Rate” along the Y-axis with a range of 0% to 90%, and “Demographic” along the X-axis with two bars, one representing student with no early college and one for student with early college, for each of the following:
- Geography: Rural
- Geography: Urban
- Gender: Male
- Gender: Female
- Race/Ethnicity: Students of Color
- Race/Ethnicity: White
Graph shows that all students with early college experience are more likely to persist during their first year of college, with males and students of color benefitting most, with improved retention rates of 12% and 14% respectively, when compared to similar peers with no early college courses.
