“For students interested in attending college, I've always told them not to let money be an issue, because if they want it badly enough, we'll help them find it. But because of the El Dorado Promise, we really do mean that today. So many parents have expressed to me the economic burden this has lifted from them. And we are seeing more motivation from our students. For me personally, I have two teenage girls, and The Promise will make things easier for us. We’ve estimated that it will save us between $60,000 and $100,000.”

“More and more of my students have the expectation to go to college. Before The Promise, several students didn't think that was a possibility for them.I have seen a greater sense of hope from parents. Parents know their kids can go to college now, and for some of them, that was not possible before. Students and families are excited about the idea of paying for college as they go, rather than having to take out student loans. ”
