Abstract: During the 40-years reform and opening up, from the initial inclusive policy measures to the currently targeted poverty alleviation, and then to ensuring that all the poor people will be lifted out of poverty by 2020 , our country has embarked on a path of poverty alleviation and development with Chinese characteristics. Against this background, colleges and universities are also constantly improving relevant policies, increasing funding for students from poor or low-income families such as establishing the poor files, to ensure that no poor students are left out and don't let the family financial burden become a stumbling block for students to go to college. " Helping the poor first helps the wisdom, and helping the wisdom first helps the heart ".
