College promise programs are increasingly popular thanks to their simple messaging around affordability, predictability, and consistency. This session will offer an overview of three programs: Bucky’s Tuition Promise, the Carolina Covenant, and the Utah Promise Scholarship. Bringing a researcher’s perspective, Elise Marifian, a pre-doctoral fellow at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, collaborated with the Office of Student Financial Aid and their Student Success Through Applied Research (SSTAR) Lab to examine the enrollment impacts of Bucky’s Tuition Promise. Our panel of practitioners and researchers will discuss the findings of the research and their experiences with promise programs at their respective institutions.
