Note. Standard errors in parentheses. All estimates are unstandardized but weighted to adjust for the BPS: 12/14 complex survey design: Analysis weight (WTA000) and bootstrap variance estimation using replicate weights (WTA001-WTA200) to adjust for poststratification weight adjustment. To economize on space, we report on coefficients and standard errors on key variables only. All specifications include students’ ACT/SAT scores, socioeconomic status, first-year GPA, and a measure total debt burden, as noted in main text and Appendix. We also control for self-reported first-year use of campus services and first-year self-reported mental health in the models predicting third-year use of campus services and third-year self-reported mental health outcomes.
