Abstract
This quasi-experimental study investigated the relationship between engagement and student success among college students with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The study was conducted at a private four-year university in the southwestern United States, referred to as Dallas Fort Worth University (DFWU). The researcher aimed to fill a gap identified in existing literature regarding the engagement experiences of college students with ADHD. Initial database searches focused on keywords such as ADHD, engagement, success, and college, along with their synonyms, to underscore the limited attention given to this specific population in previous studies concerning engagement. The study found no statistically significant effects of engagement on success for college students with or without ADHD. Results indicated existing research and best practices on engagement and student success may apply to students with ADHD. This study provided insight for both practitioners and future researchers seeking to understand the experiences of undergraduate students with ADHD.
