One Big Beautiful Bill Act Info
The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (H.R.1) was signed into law by President Trump on July 4, 2025. For students, families, and institutions like Bethune-Cookman University, this bill is significant because it changes some rules related to the federal aid (Title IV) programs. For example, the bill:
- Changes some rules for determining Federal loan eligibility
- Modifies the Federal Direct Parent PLUS Loan program
- Eliminates the Federal Direct Grad PLUS Loan program for new borrowers
- Introduces new eligibility criteria and reporting requirements that could affect how aid is awarded and maintained
