Priorities for shrinking college access gap
• lower financial barriers to college affordability;
• ensure better academic preparation for college;
• encourage HS counselors to advise students for college;
• increase the quality and quantity of college entrance and financial aid information;
• engage families as college preparation partners; and
• create more equitable admissions policies.
