The key to individual and societal success is today what it has always been: education. But the high school diploma, once the key to economic self-sufficiency, is no longer enough. The career, economic, social, emotional, health, and quality-of-life benefits of postsecondary educational attainment are clear, compelling, and far superior to those offered by a high school diploma 1. More than 60 percent of jobs, including many in fields that were once thought of as “blue collar,” now require some level of postsecondary education or training.
The Fall 2018 issue of Focus magazine takes you to a few campuses committed to implementing BFA and shares real-life stories of the students they’ve helped. In the process, you’ll also meet the dedicated educators who are driving the effort.

Love the new #BeyondFinancialAid. This isn't just a toolkit, this is the future of what all good policy reports should do: don't just say what to do, but show how to do it and make it easy to do. https://t.co/HRuvZXyFyl
