Abstract: College affordability for students and taxpayers is a function of time-to-degree. Slow time to degree is costly, and student loan debt without a degree all too often is a financial disaster. For taxpayers, investments in college affordability yield little fiscally if they do not result in degree attainment. College degree completion depends primarily upon student academic preparation at the secondary school level, college selection, full-time enrollment, and the efforts of colleges themselves to support completion. Limited resources for college affordability should be leveraged against those influences and targeted where need is greatest.
