The Continued Impact of COVID-19 on Community College Students
CCCSE
To understand the prolonged impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on community college students, the Center for Community College Student Engagement (CCCSE) added a special-focus module to the 2021 administration of the Community College Survey of Student Engagement. In March 2021, CCCSE released a report highlighting the impact of the pandemic on entering students at community colleges during fall 2020. The more recently collected data in this report reveal that many students are still struggling as a result of COVID-19, and as with the data collected last fall, some groups of students continue to be more impacted than others. The COVID-19 Impact five-item special-focus module was administered in spring 2021 to 120,833 students across 273 colleges. While students now seem to be more aware than they were last fall of support services their colleges offer to help with stress related to the pandemic, almost half still report not knowing such services exist.
