Abstract
Sense of belonging is the feeling of acceptance, inclusion, and value. In this study, sense of belonging was not different between races but was different between genders among STEM students at a Hispanic Serving Institution (N = 369, Mage = 22.42). Future analysis will examine sense of belonging and grades.
