Although previous researchers found that several individual, family, and school characteristics influenced adolescents' academic performance, religionβrelated factors have not typically been considered for models of bachelor's degree attainment. Using longitudinal data in a national database, the authors examined the relationship between high school students' religiosity and bachelor's degree attainment. The results indicate that high school students' religiosity was significantly related to bachelor's degree attainment when other variables (i.e., locus of control, selfβconcept, parental involvement, and prior academic performance) were controlled for.
