Barriers and Strategies for Success for American Indian College Students: A Review
Keith, Jill F.; Stastny, Sherri N.; Brunt, Ardith
Journal of College Student Development, v57 n6 p698-714 Sep 2016
American Indian and Alaska Native students have a significantly lower college graduation rate than that of other ethnic groups in the United States. These students often face a variety of barriers to the completion of their education. Overcoming barriers for the achievement of an advanced education takes commitment, hard work, and dedication on behalf of the educational institution as well as the student. Identified and tested strategies that address barriers and assist American Indian and Alaska Native students with positive academic experiences can contribute to academic success.
