Reduced
or free tuition policies are an increasingly popular policy tools for states
looking to increase postsecondary enrollment. However, sticker price reductions
are relatively rare in the four-year sector, so we do not know how they will
impact student enrollment decisions. Using IPEDS data and a synthetic control
approach, we investigate the impact of the North Carolina Promise on enrollment
and persistence. NC Promise is a state-level policy that reduced the price of
tuition for students enrolled at three public universities in North Carolina
starting in fall of 2018. We find that NC Promise did not increase enrollment
among first-year students. However, it attracted more transfer students and
increased enrollment of Hispanic students at one of the institutions.
