Looking at a new and innovative intervention for colleges to explore in the context of promoting post-secondary success of first-generation students. Specifically the potential impacts of an income guarantee in the 5 years following graduation on student willing to enroll, and likely impact on completeness (graduating).

The goal, ultimately, is to encourage institutions to put that into practice.
