The State of Higher Education Opportunity: 2026 Indicators of Higher Education Equity in the United States

May 19, 2026

4:00 to 5:00 p.m. ET

Join the Pell Institute researchers on Tuesday, May 19, 2026, from 4:00 – 5:00 p.m. ET, for a webinar examining the latest data and findings from the 2026 Indicators of Higher Education Equity in the United States report. The conversation will unpack what the numbers reveal about the progress the United States has made in expanding access to higher education and attaining a bachelor’s degree.
For more than a decade, the Indicators report has tracked the nation’s progress in expanding opportunity, and where that progress falls short. The 2026 edition delivers a clear and urgent message: while access and attainment have increased over time, progress has slowed or stalled in many areas.
This webinar will highlight:
– Key trends and takeaways from the Indicators 2026 report
– Where opportunity gaps are narrowing—and where they persist
– How data can (and should) inform policy, practice, and advocacy
This session is open to the public and will include time for audience Q&A. For questions, contact [email protected].
