Abstract	This report is the latest in a series of studies by the Center for an Urban Future focused on building a more inclusive economy in New York. It is informed by interviews with over 50 experts in college persistence and basic needs access--including staff at community-based organizations (CBOs), faculty and administrators at the City University of New York (CUNY), and student advisors--and over 50 conversations with students at every CUNY community college, as well as an analysis of data from CUNY, New York State's Higher Education Services Corporation, the U.S. Census Bureau's American Community Survey, and the Hope Center at Temple University's #RealCollege Survey. The report concludes with concrete recommendations for how CUNY and policymakers across New York City and State can work together to improve college completion by tackling the non-tuition financial barriers that are holding students back.
