  ABSTRACT: This longitudinal study examined the influence of attachment security on student academic success over their first four years in college. Eighty-five first-semester students provided their attachment dimensions and psychological indices at the beginning of their college careers. Students’ academic records were accessed throughout the four-year period. Securely attached students maintained higher GPA’s and graduated at a higher rate than insecurely attached students. Regression analysis analyzed the influence of attachment security on four-year cumulative college GPA from high school to college while controlling for high school GPA. The results indicate that attachment security had a significant effect on students’ four-year cumulative GPA.
