Federal Pell Grant System Failing to Aid 5.2 Million Low-Income College Students, Study Shows

Thu, 08 May 2008 13:16:00 EDT

PHOENIX, AZ--(Marketwire - May 8, 2008) - Some 5.2 million of the nation's most "financially needy" undergraduates are unable to pay for school even after receiving federal Pell Grants and maxing out supplemental financial aid like scholarships and student loans, according to a recent study by the Institute for Higher Education Policy.

The federal Pell Grant system is specifically targeted at helping low-income students afford a college education. But while Pell Grants provide some of the most fundamental financial aid for these students, the program's awards have failed to keep up with rising tuition costs, researchers write in the IHEP report, "Window of Opportunity: Targeting Federal Grant Aid to Students With the Lowest Incomes."
