in their matriculation. Other factors of influence are the number of developmental education courses that the student may have been required to take or whether the student had to repeat any of those courses.
Nonetheless, an attempt has been made to conduct an analysis of the impact that changes in the student's major makes in their time to degree. Multiple analysis were done on these data. A simple T-test showed that students who enter the University change their majors about 45% of the time. The data also shows that 55% of students during the period continued and graduated in their major of choice.
The racial diversity of KSU is well displayed in the top five (based on enrollment) programs. Enrollment in the top five constitutes forty percent of KSU's total student enrollment. The three largest groups of students at KSU by race are blacks (50%), whites (31%) and unknown (13%) of the students. All other categories of racial diversity at KSU represent a small fraction of the student population.
