Abstract: Non-financial barriers to college are an important possible explanation for socioeconomic, racial, gender, and other gaps in college access and success.A sizeable economic literature documents policy efforts to understand and address these barriers.We review this literature on non-financial interventions for improving college access and success ranging from discreet and narrowly defined interventions to comprehensive and multifaceted programs and systemic-level solutions.
