This grant funds a project led by Nick Hilman at the University of Wisconsin, Madison and Gresham Collom at St. Cloud State University to develop a comprehensive, publicly available dataset and web-based tool detailing current higher education policies and programs that offer financial support for Indigenous students. The dataset will include scholarships, grants, tax subsidies, and other college funding programs, such as tuition-free programs, available exclusively for Indigenous students at the federal, state, and postsecondary system and institutional levels in the United States. These outputs promise to provide an invaluable resource for academics, lawmakers, and tribal representatives alike for understanding the complex landscape of opportunities and obstacles faced by Americas Indigenous population when attempting to access higher education.
