This document reports survey data on gender and racial/ethnic differences
in the respondents' general background characteristics, including whether
they expected to receive financial aid, parent/guardian education, employment
plans, and other personal information. Survey results for all respondents
are provided in "1998 Entering Transfer Student
Survey: All Respondents." For information about the survey and analysis
methods see "1998 Entering Transfer Student Survey:
Introduction, Methods, and Student Demographic Profile."
Note: Due to the small number of minority respondents (30 African Americans, 49 other minorities), apparent patterns of responses may be misleading. Caution must be taken when interpreting the survey data. Complete results of tests for statistical significance of difference between gender and racial/ethnic groups are available from UPA upon request.
