From 66% in 1996 to 53% in 2020, the proportion of first-gen college students is shrinking. But this isn’t a signal to slow down—it's a reminder that equity work is far from over.

A federal financial aid policy designed to prevent fraud is instead creating unexpected debt that keeps students—particularly those from low-income families—from completing their degrees, according to new research from the Brookings Institution.
Federal Aid Policy Blocks Low-Income Students From Returning to College, Study Finds
The study found that students required to return federal aid after withdrawing mid-semester are 5% less likely to re-enroll in college. For low-income students, that figure jumps to 11%.
