The National Coalition for College Student Essential Needs (NCCSEN) brings together nearly 200 organizations working to ensure all students have the resources they need to access, afford, and complete higher education.

We advance research, policy, advocacy, narrative change, and student engagement to address food and housing insecurity, expand access to public benefits and financial aid, and build a higher education system where every student can thrive.
