Abstract	Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and community college student success are two well-studied constructs. However, they largely exist as separate fields of interest, despite their shared links to numerous variables. This study consolidated a considerable number of findings from prior research to demonstrate the plausibility of ACEs being a common factor linked to many risk factors for and indicators of community college student success, including race/ethnicity, socio-economic status, first-generation student status, grade point average, course completion rates, college readiness, testing anxiety, student-instructor rapport, sleep quality, full versus part-time enrollment, and having parenting responsibilities while enrolled in college. Utilizing a cross-sectional, quantitative survey design paired with institutional data, the study investigated relationships among these variables and ACEs. Statistically significant relationships were found to exist between ACEs and race/ethnicity, socio-economic status, first-generation student status, grade point average, testing anxiety, and students' subjective ratings of overall sleep quality, and results suggested a newer, more inclusive measure known as "Expanded ACEs" (Cronholm, 2015) might better predict outcomes for community college students compared to the original ten-item ACEs Questionnaire (Felitti et al., 1998). Implications for community college leaders, limitations of the study, and recommendations for future research are discussed.
