Fact
3 - Spiritual Development of Students
Students attending private colleges and universities are more likely
than students at public institutions to report that their campus experience
contributed to developing a deepened sense of spirituality. For example,
66 percent of seniors at nondoctoral private colleges and universities
indicated that the college they attended contributed to their spiritual
development, compared with 46 percent of their peers at public nondoctoral
institutions and 41 percent of seniors at public research universities. |

National Survey of Student Engagement
(2006) comparison report prepared for the Council of Independent
Colleges. Percentage of seniors reporting “some” or
substantially (“very much” or “quite a bit”)
to the question: “To what extent has your experience at this
institution contributed to your…developing a deepened sense
of spirituality?”
