Asian & Pacific Islander Student Challenges Paperback / softback
by Government Accountability Office
Paperback / softback
Description
As a group, Asian American and Pacific Islanders represent about 5 percent of the U.S. population and hold about 8 percent of the college degrees.
To better understand the educational attainment and average incomes of the subgroups that comprise this population, the authors asked: 1) What are Asian American and Pacific Islander subgroups' educational attainment and household income levels? (2) What challenges, if any, Asian American and Pacific Islander students face in pursuing and completing their post-secondary education? and (3) What federal and institutional resources do institutions with large Asian American and Pacific Islander student enrolment use to address the particular needs of these students?
The authors analysed data from the U.S. Census Bureau and the U.S. Department of Education (Education) and spoke with officials and Asian American and Pacific Islander students at eight post-secondary institutions.
