At CSU, Latino and African American students are about twice as likely to be placed in a remedial class as their white and Asian American counterparts. At CCC, all groups enroll in remediation at high rates; however, Latino and African American students are more likely to enroll in remedial courses than their white and Asian American peers. What is more, Latinos and African Americans are also more likely to enroll in lower levels of remediation. Similar patterns occur with low-income students and their higher-income peers at both CSU and CCC.application/pdfen-USCreative Commons Attribution-NoDerivatives 4.0 InternationalPreparednessLatin American studentsAfrican American studentsAsian American studentslow-income studentsEducation, Higher--CaliforniaRemedial Education in California’s Colleges and UniversitiesReporthttp://www.ppic.org/wp-content/uploads/jtf-remedial-education-jft.pdf
