State Policies to Achieve the Dream in Five States: An Audit of State Policies to Aid Student Access to and Success in Community Colleges in the First Five Achieving the Dream States
This report presents the findings of an audit of state policies affecting access to, and success in, community colleges in five states—Florida, New Mexico, North Carolina, Texas, and Virginia. Given recent local and state initiatives to implement programs to improve student access and success, this report explores the existence of key policies relating to tuition, student aid, open door admissions, remedial (or developmental education), transfer, performance accountability, and a number of other key areas. Recommendations for future state policy are also discussed.
