It seems the Denver Scholarship Foundation is working hard to help local students go to college.
2006 was the first year this (soon to be) citywide program offered high school seniors a few thousand $ to close the gap that financial aid leaves behind when they apply for higher ed in-state.
They're now changing the structure of the program so students will know how much they will contribute long before the week of registration. A stress reliever indeed. Now that you know your Foundation contribution before your financial aid, the question is... will there still be a gap at the end? This program seems a first step in really improving Colorado's education programs. There's much more to be done.
Unfortunately, they're also stripping undocumented immigrant students from the beneficiaries list... So much for universal access to the American Dream....hmmm...
