Biden aims to increase college success with $62 billion investment

The $62 billion proposal is a part of Biden’s American Families Plan, released last week, which includes a total of $290 billion in higher education spending to offer tuition-free community college, support for historically Black colleges and other minority-serving institutions, and increased Pell Grant awards. According to a fact sheet for the plan, states, territories and tribes would receive grant funding to allocate to colleges that adopt innovative, proven solutions for student success, including wraparound services, emergency basic needs grants and transfer agreements between colleges. The student success proposal represents a partial shift in focus at the federal level from helping students access and afford college to now helping students stay in and complete college, said Tamara Hiler, director of education at Third Way.

Spring brings even steeper enrollment declines

Across the sector, higher education leaders hoped for better news this semester, said Doug Shapiro, executive director of the research center. He was surprised to see steeper declines this spring than in the fall. “I think there were many people who thought students might only stop out for a term and once they see the situation improving, they might re-enroll or start up in the spring,” Shapiro said. “And that’s clearly not happening. Declines at the four-year and the two-year institutions are larger than they were last term.” Some groups of students had steeper enrollment decreases than others. Enrollment of students between the ages of 18 and 20, who make up about 40 percent of undergraduates, fell 7.2 percent, a larger drop than any other age group. At community colleges, enrollment by these traditional college-age students plummeted a dramatic 14.6 percent.

NYU saw a 20% spike in applications this year. Harvard had a 42% increase and Colgate University received more than double (102%) the applications this year than last.
