Abstract	Obtaining a college degree is positively correlated with gains in socioeconomic mobility. However, college is expensive. Given the importance of college in increasing social mobility, lawmakers have proposed eliminating student debt. Joe Biden, for example, has incorporated eliminating student debt into his presidential campaign promise. While eliminating student debt is long overdue, there need to be additives to eliminating student loan debt to make college affordable for all current and future students. By going through the literature on college promise programs, I argue that college promise programs can be one method to sustain efforts to make college affordable. (As Provided).
