| Abstract | The State Need Grant is Washington State's largest financial assistance program for low-income, needy, and disadvantaged residents attending institutions of higher education. It provides financial assistance to low-income residents attending an undergraduate institution in Washington. Currently, students with an income under 70 percent of the state's median family income (MFI) (currently $57,500 for a family of four) can receive a grant award that covers their tuition and fees. Community and Technical College (CTC) students make up the majority of students eligible for and served by the State Need Grant. This report describes two year CTC students eligible for and enrolled in CTCs in 2011-12. It compares eligible students who were served and not served for demographics, enrollment status, and college retention rates. Key findings include: (1) the percent of eligible students not receiving aid has risen substantially in the past five years as college enrollments swelled; (2) for students with similar characteristics and similar financial need, retention is significantly higher if eligible students receive a Need Grant; and (3) students who receive the Need Grant have significantly more of their financial needs met than eligible students who are not served. The difference in financial aid received and the corresponding difference in financial need that is met by aid is due almost entirely to receipt or non-receipt of the Need Grant. (ERIC). |
