Show Notes
Iowa State Universitys ISU Four-You Promise Program, which provided tuition-free college to graduates from two Des Moines elementary schools, is being phased out due to budget constraints. Despite this, the university has created tools for local teachers to continue supporting college access for first-generation students. Current students from the targeted schools before 2025-2026 remain eligible for full tuition coverage, while newer students can receive up to $6,000 over four years. Meanwhile, other Iowa promise programs, like Drake Universitys Bulldog Promise, continue to thrive and attract Iowa talent.
