Trent, William T. Gong, Yuqin 2015-09-25T19:54:26Z 2015-09-25T19:54:26Z 10000-01-01 2006 2006 Although it remains to be determined whether mismatch has the same effects on graduation, major/field choice, grade, student's self-concept, and career attainment, clearly the use of race in admission is positively associated with students' retention at the early stage of their college life, both through shifting these students to higher-rank institutions and through increasing minority students' enrollment in the student body. The evidence calls for the continuation of considering race in admission to reduce social inequality and to ensure other benefits that require a diverse student body in higher education institutions.
