Description

The relationship between chronic health conditions on college campuses and student belonging is uncertain. This population of students remains underrecognized and understudied. This study addressed this relationship via an online, anonymous thirteen-question survey. What was discovered was that academic support should be approached differently and/or changed to better support students with chronic conditions. The findings reflect gaps in the campus’ current academic support for students who choose to use academic resources. Low levels of belonging were found within the results. This could be improved upon through developing and restructuring the current systems and programs.
