Montevallo Shuts Down MADE Program for Underserved Students

Published 1 week, 2 days ago
Description

University of Montevallos MADE Program, a vital support system for first-year underserved students, is shutting down. Launched in 2019, the program offered comprehensive assistance, including early orientation, scholarships, coaching, and job opportunities. Despite its success, with a retention rate over 90% in 2023, the program faced challenges due to the pandemic, funding issues, and recent state bills targeting diverse student initiatives. Montevallos decision reflects broader shifts in college support for underserved students.
