Changes
(continued from page 1)
The report also says the reautho
rization could change the Pell Grant
program. Tentative provisions in the
House bill call for Pell Grant eligibil
ity to be extended to less than half
time students.
The Senate bill does not include
these provisions.
Ozer said the USSA supports the
House bill on an “equity” principle.
“As an organization representing
students, USSA supports a basic fed
eral grant program available to all
students,” she said. “A lot of differ
ent kinds of students are on campus.
They shouldn’t be penalized if they
can’t take a full load.”
Bormann said the Pell program
uses index numbers assigned to stu
dents based on financial need, the
amount of hours being taken during
the semester and the costs of the in
stitution the applicant attends. He
explained that under this system a
student eligible for maximum funds
would have a zero index number.
This year students with index
numbers up to 1900 were eligible for
the Pell program, Bormann said.
However, because of a shortage in
allocation of funds for the program
the index number requirement was
dropped to 1200. This meant stu
dents who were rightfully eliglible
for the program with indexes of
1201 to 1900 were denied funding,
he said.
To compensate for the problem
legislators passed a new bill which in
creased the index requirement to
1500. Still, Bormann said, students
who rightfully were eligible for aid
were denied.
Ozer attributed the shortfall in
the program to the Department of
Education’s underestimation of the
number of applicants as well as the
$154 million cut in the program
from the Gramm-Rudman deficit
reduction law.
Bormann is concerned that allow
ing the less than half-time students
into the program next year may
mean another drop in the index
number to accommodate the larger
population of eligible students ap
plying for the program.
The result will be a decrease in the
amount available to each student,
Bormann said.
“It’s like a paradox,” he said. “It
would appear more students would
be eligible in Pell Grants because less
than half-time students would qual
ify. However, since the federal pro
gram is not fully funded, more stu
dents would be qualified than the
amount of appropriated dollars for
program — thereby disqm-
eligible students.”
