Congressional Republicans on Tuesday introduced companion Congressional Review Act (CRA) resolutions to overturn the Biden administration’s new income-driven repayment plan, the Saving on Valuable Education (SAVE) plan.

As incarcerated students again become eligible to receive federal financial aid like Pell Grants — after a nearly 30-year federal ban — the financial aid and prison education communities must come together to ensure they are prepared to support these students. To that end, NASFAA, with generous grant funding from Ascendium Education Group, has created a Prison Education Program Web Center to house tools, training, and news related to the implementation of financial aid in carceral settings. The web center will be updated regularly, so be sure to check back for new resources.

Each year, NASFAA presents awards to deserving members of the financial aid profession and higher education community. Let's take a moment to congratulate the winner of the 2023 Robert P. Huff Golden Quill Award, which is given to an individual or individuals chosen for their contributions to the literature on student financial aid. Congratulations to Steven McDowell, associate vice president for financial aid services & title IV compliance at Connecticut State Community Colleges. Take a look back at past recipients of the Robert P. Huff Golden Quill Award, and see all of the 2023 award recipients.
