本文主要透過文獻分析法與訪談法，檢視我國大專校院經濟弱勢學生獎助學金制度。首先從理論為探究起點，並研究美國與我國制度現況。其次，以就學費用減去可得到的協助就學資源，估算就學費用缺口，發現三類經濟弱勢學生實際上皆不足。研究者以「大專校院經濟弱勢學生協助就學措施改善方案」(草案) ，作為焦點團體訪談以及個別訪談的工具。獲得下述結論：一是經濟弱勢學生實際就學所需不足，二是助學措施名詞易生混淆，三是助學訊息零散，四是社政單位協助經濟弱勢者積極度不足。文末提出短、中、長三期程的建議，以減小就學費用缺口，協助經濟弱勢學生順利就學。

The research examines the Taiwan student aid system for college underprivileged students. First, it begins from the relative theories and the current status in the United States and Taiwan. Secondly, the amount schooling expenses deducting available schooling aid is schooling deficit. The three kinds of students all face the deficit. The researcher proposes an improvement draft to implement Focused Group Interview and Individual Interview. The main conclusions are as following: (1) The actual student aid for economically underprivileged students schooling is not enough. (2) The term of each financial supporting way is confusing. (3) The financial supporting information is unintegrated. (4) The social welfare department helps economically underprivileged students with insufficient enthusiasm. The last part of the thesis has three-stage suggestions. The suggestions are to minimize the lack of schooling resources to help the students go to school as they hope.
