Institutions target baby boomers with hefty tuition fellowship programs - Jeremy House, Education Dive

Other schools, including the University of Notre Dame and the University of Minnesota, now are following suit. College representatives say these fellowships, which often cater to baby boomers seeking a second act, are a win for institutions’ bottom lines because they target white-collar workers paying sometimes hefty tuition fees. https://www.educationdive.com/news/institutions-target-baby-boomers-with-hefty-tuition-fellowship-programs/
