Bill would continue to make college affordable by Megan Luecke, Apr 11, 2008 (8:40pm)

This bill would renew a provision of current law that would mandate that all colleges and universities provide financial aid on the basis of need, that they use common criteria in determining this need, and that they use a common financial aid application form. By following these rules, colleges and universities can continue to make college affordable for all students who are qualified to take advantage of the opportunity. Because previous versions of this bill passed with no opposition, this bill is likely to become a law.
