As part of our Financial Aid for Indigenous Students project, we started a monthly blog! Posts will provide details on the opportuntities we've found so far and highlight some exceptional programs. Check out the first post here: sstar.wisc.edu/snapshot-of-i…
We found several programs like this in our upcoming database. Our website and final dataset won't be available until early 2025, but we provide our early draft of the 241 financial aid opportunities for Native students here (feel free to share widely!): docs.google.com/spreadsheets…
To increase access to higher education for Native students, Michigan State is offering in-state tuition to Native ppl living across the country. The move in part is in response to Michigan’s history where many of its Indigenous ppl were violently removed. buff.ly/3NKDqtB
Excited to share a new publication examining college enrollment choices in Tennessee's free-college context. Grateful for my co-authors, Ashton Cooper, Patrick Biddix, and Alexis Hartley. Feel free to reach out for a link to a free download if needed!

Tuition and fee free college is here in Minnesota. In honor of CTE month, @LtGovFlanagan and OHE Commissioner @dolsonjr visited HVAC classrooms at @MplsCollege today, seeing firsthand one of the many programs that thousands of students can take tuition and fee free this fall.
ALT Minnesota Office of Higher Education Commissioner Dennis Olson and Lt. Governor Peggy Flanagan visit with two Minneapolis College students in an HVAC classroom on Feb. 15.
This is amazing, proud of @UWMadison for going above and beyond with their new Wisconsin Tribal Educational Promise program. The program covers the full cost of attendance for enrolled WI Tribal Members, and an option for J.D. and M.D. aspiring students!

Different type of publication announcement - our Tribe's annual collection of creative work is available! This year includes a sci-fi short-story written by me, and plenty of other amazing work. All proceeds support the Mohican's Writers Circle non-profit.

Such a fun week meeting Bucky and the rest of my new team @UWMad_SSTARLab! So excited to join the lab and continue to contribute to research on college opportunity and student success!
Enjoyed sharing more about our project with @nasfaa and @mariaspov. Really excited for what we're finding in the early stages of data collection and can't wait to get this resource up and running to help support Indigenous College students!
A new project out of @UWMad_SSTARLab seeks to connect Indigenous students with financial aid resources through a new web tool: ow.ly/wTmN50PrHSE #fachat
Love to see Michigan Reconnect lower its age requirement this year from 25 to 21. I've advocated for this change in adult-focused promise programs for years. Hoping other programs follow their lead! highereddive.com/news/350000…
