Shohfi, Kyle D. – Congressional Research Service, 2019
To address concerns about the public postsecondary education offerings available to District of Columbia residents, the District of Columbia College Access Act of 1999 (P.L. 106-98) established the District of Columbia Tuition Assistance Grant (DCTAG) program. The program is meant to provide college-bound DC residents with a greater array of…

Prebil, Michael – New America, 2019
Existing state policies to support the costs of apprentices' classroom training at colleges are a patchwork. Some states have implemented effective subsidies to support credit-bearing apprenticeship offerings without any cost to the apprentice; other policies are well-intentioned but counterproductive. Across the country, though, many states…

Sohn, Hosung; Rubenstein, Ross; Murchie, Judson; Bifulco, Robert – Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis, 2017
We find evidence of enrollment increases in both Syracuse and Buffalo following the announcement of a placed-based scholarship program, Say Yes to Education. While the Syracuse increases were accompanied by enrollment declines in surrounding suburban districts, the Buffalo increases coincided with declines in private school enrollments. Buffalo…

Granville, Peter; Miller, Kevin; Mishory, Jen – Century Foundation, 2019
A changing economy in Michigan means that education beyond high school, whether it's a degree or training for a specific skill or job, is more important than ever. But in Michigan, low- and middle-income families are seeing college costs continue to rise--for many, rising beyond their reach. Michigan has some of the highest public tuition levels…

Wyness, Gill – Education Sciences, 2016
After the abolition of student maintenance grants in 2016, higher education bursaries will be the major source of non-repayable aid for poor students in England, with £300 m spent per year. The aims of the bursary system were never explicitly laid out by government, making it challenging to evaluate this unique form of aid. In this paper, I…

Wayt, Lindsay K.; McBain, Lesley – National Association of College and University Business Officers, 2017
Tuition discounting at four-year private, nonprofit colleges and universities has been on the rise for several years. This practice, which colleges and universities use to provide institutional grants to students who are unable or unwilling to pay the full tuition and fee price, allows institutions to meet multiple institutional goals, including…

Broton, Katharine M.; Goldrick-Rab, Sara; Benson, James – Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis, 2016
One way in which financial aid is thought to promote college success is by minimizing the time students spend working. Yet, little research has examined if this intended first-order effect occurs, and results are mixed. We leverage a randomized experiment and find that students from low-income families in Wisconsin offered additional grant aid…

Scott-Clayton, Judith – Urban Institute, 2017
The federal role in higher education has grown over the past two decades, and now a new administration has the opportunity to strengthen policies that support students and their colleges and universities. To help inform these decisions, the Urban Institute convened a bipartisan group of scholars and policy advisers to write a series of memos…

Malatras, Jim – Nelson A. Rockefeller Institute of Government, 2018
There is a widening college access gap in the United States. The ever-rising cost of higher education, coupled with diminished government financial support and growing income inequality, have put college out of reach for many at a critical juncture when postsecondary education is essential for enhancing career prospects. The situation has been…

Gansemer-Topf, Ann Marie; Behaunek, Luke – AERA Online Paper Repository, 2017
Tuition discounting (TD), a practice whereby institutional grants are used to subsidize a student's educational expense, has become a common practice at four-year institutions. TDs impact on enrollments, financial aid, and budgets continues to increase, raising concerns about the long-term sustainability of the practice. Drawing upon Breneman's…

Kramer, Jenna W. – AERA Open, 2020
Technology-facilitated interventions following high school graduation have shown promise for increasing the likelihood of college matriculation, but we know little about how to fine-tune these tools. I conducted an experiment in which college-intending Tennessee high school graduates received informational messages in distinct behavioral frames:…
