The State Council of Higher Education (SCHEV) on Tuesday released an updated statewide strategic plan, which focuses on making higher education more “equitable, affordable and transformative.” 

The Pathways to Opportunity: The Virginia Plan for Higher Education (The Plan) is reviewed every six years. 

“The events of 2020 — COVID-19, social justice reforms and concerns about a civil society — reinforce the need for this plan,” SCHEV Director Peter Blake said in a statement. “Now more than ever, the commonwealth should aspire to a system of higher education that is equitable, affordable and transformative.”

The goals of the updated plan include removing barriers to access for Black, Hispanic, Native American and rural students; developing cost saving initiatives for students; and increasing social, cultural and economic well-being.

The next step of the process in updating The Plan is developing action plans. A timeline has not been released, but the major goal of the plan is to have 70% educational attainment by 2030.
