The Institute for Higher Education Policy is celebrating 30 years of promoting access and success in higher education for all students with a focus on students from low-income backgrounds and others historically marginalized on the basis of race, background, or circumstance. We are a nonpartisan nonprofit research, policy and advocacy organization.

Strong Outcomes for All Students
All institutions and programs should deliver value to students.
Data & Transparency
Our system of higher education is data-rich but information-poor.
Need-Based Aid
Need-based aid does more than make college more affordable – it makes college possible.
Equitable College Admissions
Higher education is a door, but recruitment, admissions, and enrollment policies and practices dictate how wide that door is open.
Evidence-Based Completion
Higher education can be a pathway to economic security, social mobility, and society-wide value – but only if the student completes their degree.
