Our group will be facilitating a discussion about access to higher education and ways to shrink the opportunity gap that it currently breeds. College degrees are becoming increasingly necessary to find employment, but access to them is not always in reach. We will focus on three approaches to closing the gap and striving for educational opportunity for all:
- Improving Financial Aid
- Upgrading the Application Process
- Making Improvements While Still in High School
I am tasked with researching and exploring the second approach, which is improving the initial process of applying to college.
