The State of Student Aid and Higher Education in Texas (SOSA) annual report from Trellis Research provides information helpful in informing policy and programs for higher education student financial aid. The report serves as a reference for colleges, universities, and policymakers, and provides a comparison of Texas state and federal student aid programs. A primary goal of the SOSA is to serve as a resource for generating healthy discussions based on a common understanding of the facts. For more than two decades, Trellis has made this complimentary report available to lawmakers and higher education institutions to help inform their work as they shape policies and programs affecting Texas students. As a straightforward reference report, the SOSA highlights data on a variety of student finance topics, including higher education, demographic projections, college costs, student loan repayment outcomes, and higher education policy.
