LSA Economist Susan Dynarski Featured in Michigan Radio Story on U-M's 'Go Blue Guarantee'
Dynarski's study showed that prospective students from a lower socioeconomic status who received materials touting free tuition were significantly more likely to apply to U-M than those who received traditional marketing materials. Her research first led to the HAIL Scholarship, and now will apply to any student whose household income is less than $65,000.
The Go Blue Guarantee, "puts the affordability information front and center, where it can help students make decisions about where to apply for college," says Dynarski.
