Frontline. A subprime education

Description

First: In A Subprime Education, correspondent Martin Smith returns to the story of for-profit colleges - which FRONTLINE first examined in the 2010 documentary College, Inc. - to investigate allegations of fraud and predatory behavior in the troubled industry. Then, in a second segment, FRONTLINE explores a very different educational experience. The Education of Omarina continues a story FRONTLINE has been following since 2012 - showing how an innovative program to stem the high school dropout crisis has affected one girl's journey, from a public middle school in the Bronx to an elite New England private school, and now on to college.
