Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: In the past three decades, colleges have experienced revolutionary changes, and the enrollment revolution has had a particularly profound impact on two-year colleges. We describe the new kinds of students who are entering college today and the ways colleges have begun to adapt. Then, analyzing interviews with students and administrators and a survey of over 4,300 students in 14 two-year colleges, we examine four questions: 1. Do students have serious information problems, and are college procedures ever responsible? 2. How can colleges improve students’ information and planning—more information or different college structures? 3. Do colleges with alternative structures affect student information, planning, and confidence in degree completion? 4. Do alternative college structures matter, net of student attributes? The results suggest new approaches to addressing the information needs of college students, which may have important implications for their success. The evidence in this study suggests that structured programs, structured advising, and structured peer supports should be added to the menu of college policy alternatives that deserve further consideration and study.
