    I saw in another post on this that it could also impact student loans federal college grants since those funds are given directly to universities. It’ll be interesting to see how this plays out as spring term begins in a month or two.

    Edited to use the right terminology.

      OMB clarified that VA benefits and PELL Grants are not included.

      I’m sure that’ll change in… Forty seconds or so but as it stands now, the leopards have delayed eating those faces for now.
