Peabody's Wyatt Center Rotunda was the setting for a recent panel discussion on the impact of the current financial climate on low- and moderate-income student's ability to access assistance for higher education. The panel was hosted by the U.S. Department of Education's Advisory Committee on Student Financial Assistance, which functions as a non-partisan source of advice to Congress and the Secretary of Education on higher education and student financial aid.
The committee recently released data that show millions of college-qualified high school graduates encounter significant financial barriers that may worsen considerably over the next decade. The report projected a loss of between 1.4 and 2.4 million bachelor's degrees this decade alone, despite rising academic preparedness. | en |
