“Students receiving financial aid, particularly grant aid, may be able to work less and instead spend more time engaging with people and experiences outside the classroom, potentially leading to a higher course grades and higher rates of persistence and degree completion than their peers required to work more hours”

The connection is that if a student receives a lot of scholarships or other financial aid there will be many positive effects. Such as not having to work as much, being able to engage with other people, and being able to focus on school.
