HBCU Debts Forgiven
The latest stimulus bill signed by President Trump includes loan forgiveness for HBCUs.  Key provisions:

■ Forgive nearly $1,300,000,000 in federal loans under the HBCU Capital Financing Program. (See page 2593 of the bill.)


■ End the exclusion of drug-offenders from the Pell Grant eligibility. 

 

■ Restore Pell grant eligibility for incarcerated persons. 


Shorten the federal financial aid application (FAFSA) to 36 questions.

 

■ Provide funds directly to states for education (governor's relief fund).

 

■  Allocate $300,000 to improve research and education through the public and land-grant universities.

 

■ Invest in broadband access for students, families, the unemployed, and those in rural areas.
