摘要

The purpose of this study is to explore the factors that led to the move to include non-need aid in community college institutional financial aid policies. The following questions guided the research: (1) What meaning do those involved in the formulation of institutional financial aid policy at community colleges give to need and non-need as criteria for financial aid? (2) What internal factors influenced the decision to include non-need in institutional financial aid policies at community colleges? (3) What external factors influenced the decision to include non-need in institutional financial aid policies at community colleges? and (4) What explains the move away from need-based towards the inclusion of non-need in institutional community college financial aid policies? The research design included an interpretive social science philosophical approach and case study method with four community colleges selected using unique case sampling.;The recognition of the meanings given to need and non-need aid by the colleges in this study provided context for the decision to include non-need in institutional financial aid policies from the perspective of those involved in the formulation of financial aid. The meanings of need and non-need identified by the colleges were found to be similar to the meanings given to need and non-need in the literature.;The findings also included identifying internal and external factors which influenced a community college's decision to include non-need aid in institutional financial aid policies. Internal factors identified by the participating community colleges were: (a) award performance, (b) shift in culture, (c) increase enrollment, (4) access to education, (5) strategize goals, (6) increase retention, and (7) incentivize attendance. External factors were: (a) competitors, (b) federal aid policy, (c) state aid policy, (d) state education policy, (e) funds, (f) student performance, and (g) donor base. The study concluded with an analysis of the interplay between the internal and external factors identified by the community colleges in this study. Two major findings emerged through this analysis. First the internal factors identified by a majority of community colleges in this study were more important than the external factors in the decision to include non-need in institutional financial aid policies. Second, four themes emerged from the cross-case analysis that offer possible explanations for the decision to include non-need in institutional financial aid policies: (1) increase access, (2) raise the profile of community colleges, (3) cultural shift within the community college, and (4) strategize goals.

(4)是什么解释了从基于需求的转变为在机构社区大学经济援助政策中纳入非需求的原因?研究设计包括一种解释性社会科学哲学方法和案例研究方法,其中四所社区大学采用独特的案例抽样法进行选择。;对本研究中大学对需要和不需要帮助的含义的认识为研究决策提供了背景从涉及经济援助制定的角度来看,将不需要的资金包括在机构经济援助政策中。发现大学所确定的需要和不需要的含义与文献中所给出的需要和不需要的含义相似。研究结果还包括识别影响社区大学决定是否包括非要求的内部和外部因素。机构经济援助政策中需要援助。参与社区大学确定的内部因素是:(a)奖励表现,(b)文化转变,(c)入学率增加,(4)受教育的机会,(5)制定目标,(6)增加保留率,以及( 7)激励出勤率。外部因素是:(a)竞争对手,(b)联邦援助政策,(c)国家援助政策,(d)国家教育政策,(e)资金,(f)学生表现,以及(g)捐助者基础。该研究以对社区大学在此研究中确定的内部和外部因素之间的相互作用进行了分析。通过此分析得出了两个主要发现。首先,大多数社区大学在这项研究中确定的内部因素比外部因素在决定是否将不需要的机构金融援助政策纳入决策中更为重要。其次,跨案例分析中出现了四个主题,这些主题为决定是否将不需要纳入机构财务援助政策提供了可能的解释:(1)增加获取机会,(2)提高社区学院的形象,(3)文化转变在社区学院内,以及(4)制定目标。
