Creates federal grants to help students earn college credits and degrees faster.
This bill would create new federal grant programs to help high school students get a head start on college. It would authorize $250 million to be appropriated each year for six years to fund programs that let students earn college credits or degrees while still in high school, especially those from low-income families or groups typically underrepresented in higher education. This aims to increase the number of students who complete a college credential on time.
Today, there isn't a specific federal grant program to boost early college or dual enrollment programs. If this bill passes, the Secretary of Education would create new grant programs for colleges, school districts, and States, authorizing $250 million to be appropriated each year for six years. This would help more students, especially those from low-income backgrounds, earn college credits or degrees while still in high school, often without paying tuition.
