A shot of a group of students laughing and talking while studying outsidegetty Between eroded state support and declining enrollment, public college and university budgets have been hit hard over the past decade. Federal pandemic financial support to colleges has helped, but that money is ending. As a result, many schools are looking for new ways to attract more students and the tuition dollars that come with them.
