Abstract	This case study analyzed a unique doctoral program in education at Dowling College, Long Island, New York that had an 88% graduation rate within seven years that included 60% of students of color in contrast with doctoral graduation rates in the United States that are an average of 38% within seven years with only 24% students of color graduating. This study used a qualitative analysis to learn about their retention. It included documents analyses, pre-survey to alumni, in-depth interviews with thirty-two alumni and three faculty/administrators. Three major themes emerged: a sense of belonging, cooperative learning, faculty-administration support, and students' purpose, and competence. Recommendations to make a graduate program successful are presented. (As Provided).
