Excited to follow today's #MillennialMon chat on the #PellGrant! A1: Pell is awarded by the calculation on the #FAFSA so any student who qualifies by need and attends an eligible school receives the grant dollars.
IHEP @IHEPTweets
A2: IHEP research found that, even after #Pell, students from the lowest-income families had to finance 157% of their family’s income for 1 year at a 4-year college. #Pell serves as one tool to help the lowest-income students chip away at daunting prices. #MillennialMon https://t.co/6lHQ7Vefv7

Q7: As Congress looks to reauthorize the Higher Education Act, what federal policies should be incorporated to improve the #PellGrant program? #MillennialMon https://t.co/ccseMABH0H
Higher Learning Advocates @HigherLearnADV
A7: Policymakers should continue to provide adequate funding for the #PellGrant program to increase #postsecondary #attainment and #completion, as well as to strengthen our #workforce. Learn more here in our 101: https://t.co/LChhqLus8F #MillennialMon https://t.co/SrOpGF8U1L
IHEP @IHEPTweets
A7: Policymakers should look to strengthen & protect the #PellGrant in a new #HEA by increasing the max Pell award, indexing the grant to inflation, making program funding mandatory, and raising the income threshold for an automatic-zero EFC! #MillennialMon
Carrie Warick-Smith @CarrieWarick
A7. Congress should: *Double the #PellGrant to restore its purchasing power for the public bachelor’s degree *Fix the new, higher Pell Grant to the rate of inflation so it continues to maintain pace https://t.co/ai9qJe3PKj #MillennialMon

A8: Because #PellGrant is primarily supported by discretionary $, appropriators’ annual funding decisions play a key role in ensuring strong grant. For the last 2 yrs appropriators provided critical award increases that helped ensure value didn't decline. #MillennialMon 1/3

Congressional leaders must agree on a 2-yr budget deal that includes funding levels adequate for appropriators to prioritize and strengthen the #PellGrant. #MillennialMon 3/3

Overall budget decisions also impact the amount of $ available to support #PellGrant. Negotiations re: budget caps are underway now, & will significantly impact appropriators’ ability to continue making needed increases to Pell. #MillennialMon 2/3
