Investing in Student Success: Examining the Return on Investment for Minority‐Serving Institutions

Abstract

Although minority‐serving institutions (MSIs) educate nearly one fifth of the nation's college students, there is to date little research on MSI's return on investment (ROI). To address this, the University of Pennsylvania and Educational Testing Service commissioned four papers focusing on the ROI for MSIs, which were presented originally in December 2015 at the National Convening on Return on Investment for Minority Serving Institutions. This report contains the four papers presented at the seminar, as well as an introduction.Report Number: ETS RR‐17–57
