TICUA member institutions comprise 11 of the top 15 schools in the state with the highest percentage of Pell-eligible, low-income students enrolled. 

Year after year, while state and federal aid has remained stagnant, private non-profit institutions have significantly increased the amount of student aid provided to students to enable thousands of low-income, first-generation college students to attend an academic program that best suits them. 

As a result, 50.4% of undergraduate TICUA students graduated without debt in the 2017-2018 school year.
