Food Insecurity and Associated Demographic Academic and Health Factors Among Undergraduate Students at a Large Urban University
The estimated prevalence of food insecurity among college students is approximately 41%. In response, colleges are implementing food support programs such as campus food pantries and free meals through campus cafeterias. However, there is limited research on prevalence estimates of food insecurity on campuses that have adopted support programs, and if food insecurity on such campuses is associated with known demographic risk factors and health behaviors. The purpose of this study was to assess food insecurity and associated demographics, grade point average (GPA) and health behaviors among undergraduate students attending a 4-year urban university that has a short-term food support program.
