Elevating College Completion
We’ve reached a fever pitch in the press when it comes to issues of college affordability. But there’s another aspect of higher education that often doesn’t get near the attention it deserves – college completion. While more students than ever are going to college, the reality is that only about half who enroll go on to earn their degree. This new series of five in-depth reports, published in partnership with AEI and a team of talented researchers, spotlights the completion problem in higher education and elevates ideas for policy solutions that could incentivize institutions and programs to address it.
