Sticky Facts on College Completion

We are heartened to see the federal government acknowledge the importance of getting students to and through college with a first-of-its kind investment in college completion. This infographic highlights key facts about the broad impact of college completion to help support policymakers and advocates in their continued efforts to get more students across the finish line.
