Abstract	Differences in funding mixtures across the United States create widely variant levels of unmet need for students. This research examines gaps of unmet need between 2003-4 and 2013-14, particularly considering the presence of any local funding provisions and Pell Grant funding changes. These findings are also considered across state, community college type by both size and setting. Data were collected from the National Center for Education Statistics' (NCES) Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS). Results show that the change in the cost of attendance and the average amount of financial aid to students over the decade this study examines has been steady. Increase in Pell Grant aid have helped ameliorate some of the differences in unmet need across states. However, national averages mask stark differences in unmet need across the subsections listed above. Implications for policy and practice are discussed. (As Provided).
