Rationale for Objective: Student access and success (Maintain)

As mentioned above, demographic composition affects the climate of inclusiveness. The college will maintain access and success of low-income students as indicated by recent trends in terms of the proportion of entering class, student body, and degrees awarded to low-income students. Fall-to-fall retention of low-income students already exceeds the retention rate of all students; the college will strive to sustain retention rates for low-income students that are equal to or greater than the general student body.
