Education
Education is the primary pathway to better-paying jobs and economic security.
With each step up in their education, women in Texas tend to earn more.
When it comes to post-secondary education in Texas, women are leaders. In 2021, 1.5 times as many women as men completed public college.
Women hold the majority of outstanding student debt, and tuition and fees per full-time student has exceeded state general revenue support for public universities since 2009.
Over three in five Texas women were in households where someone’s post-secondary education plans changed due to the pandemic.
