Abstract	No state has done more than Tennessee to shift state higher education funding to reflect outcomes rather than inputs. In other states, most of the core funding for higher education, including tuition and state appropriations, flows to colleges based on student enrollment. With a goal to reach the national average in higher education attainment by 2025, Tennessee is at the vanguard of this movement and has aligned its budget with its ambitions. It is the first state to base most state appropriations to colleges and universities on outcomes, with emphasis on progress toward and completion of degrees. Initial results are promising, but still preliminary. Evidence of success will come from information on: (1) degrees awarded; (2) enrollment; (3) grades and credits earned; and (4) progress and other performance benchmarks. Recommendations for other states that emerge from initial findings are included. This brief's appendix table shows how data will become available over the next several years to facilitate review of the impact of formula funding in Tennessee. (ERIC).
