In a majority
of states, funding for public postsecondary institutions is partially based on
performance or outcomes. CLASP suggests states need to build robust “equity measures” into their funding
formulas. Research implies that using outcomes-based funding without equity
measures disincentivizes colleges from helping low-income, underprepared,
and/or adult students, as well as students of color, enter and complete
programs.
