Jackson, Gregory A.
American Journal of Education, v98 n4 p523-50 Aug 1990
Examines effects of financial aid on college entry patterns of Blacks, Whites, and Hispanics. Uniform financial aid awards probably increase the representation of Blacks in higher education. For Hispanics, however, family and academic background variables may outweigh the financial aid factor in the decision to enter college. (DM)
