Abstract	This brief examines the varied effects of dual credit on second-year persistence and first-year GPA for underrepresented minority undergraduate students (URM), compared to white or Asian, non-Hispanic undergraduate students. The first brief (ED611821) showed a substantial gap in dual credit between URM and non-URM students, and this brief provides further evidence to support the need for increased URM student participation in dual credit. In this data sample, only 11.4% of participants were URM, compared to 88.6% who were white or Asian. This is the fourth of six research briefs on dual credit in Kentucky. (ERIC).
