In a five-year longitudinal study of Hispanic-American students taking online courses at a U.S. South Central University, the researchers sought to describe the demographic makeup of the typical online Hispanic-American student and the demographic makeup of the successful online Hispanic-American student. Using archived data it was determined that the profile of the online Hispanic-American students closely mirrored the profile of white populations.
