Check out the latest report from @peerresearch. "Improving College Affordability: A Review of the Literature" is a deep-dive into what policymakers know, and what they still need to know, about which policies improve #highered enrollment and outcomes. peer-center.org/research/imp…
Today marks two years since the launch of the @PeerResearch Center. Check out some highlights from our past work -- and stay tuned for much more #highered research to come!

Washington state community colleges award thousands of very-short-term certificates each year. A new report from @peerresearch and @wsacouncil details how those students fare in the labor market. Read more: peer-center.org/research/sho…
A new law makes very-short #highered certificates eligible for Pell Grants. A new report from @peerresearch and @wsacouncil spotlights which programs may qualify, what types of students they enroll, and the labor market outcomes of graduates. Read more: peer-center.org/research/sho…

What happened when Congress closed the 90/10 Rule loophole? @srcellini and Vasquez found that many colleges offset the inclusion of DOD, VA, and other fed dollars by increasing total revenue. Check it out: peer-center.org/research/clo…
Check out this new @PeerResearch brief on #highered accountability, where we find that many fewer students in low-financial-value programs will be affected by the new rules post-OBBBA than before, despite the rules applying to more programs. peer-center.org/research/har…
.@usedgov recently published proposed rules governing earnings-based accountability for #highered programs for public comments (due May 20). Get caught up with these pieces from the Postsecondary Education & Economics Research (PEER) Center:
