Female and international athletes tend to post higher graduation rates than their non-athletic counterparts. A full 91 percent of non-resident alien athletes on scholarship at NCAA schools graduated. Half of the 820 Hispanic athletes at Division 1 institutions graduated within six years, compared with just 38 percent of Hispanic students. Asians were the only ethnic group to post a lower percentage of athlete than student graduates. Only 64 percent of Asian athletes graduated while 66 percent of all Asian students did.
