We are deeply troubled by the U.S. Department of Education\u2019s (\u201cDepartment\u201d) inaccurate interpretation that, \u201cCongress intended the category of those eligible for \u2018emergency financial aid grants to students\u2019 in section 18004 of the CARES Act to be limited to those individuals eligible for title IV assistance.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/i><u1_p><\/u1_p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><i><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\">Congress worked diligently to pass the CARES Act in a bipartisan manner providing more than $6 billion in discretionary funding to institutions of higher education and emergency financial aid to students most affected by the pandemic, regardless of veteran status or eligibility for Title IV aid under the Higher Education Act.

Despite this, the Department still has not considered this feedback or reconsidered its position that disproportionately denies emergency financial aid grants to veteran and military-connected students. As the groups\u2019 letter notes, according to the Department\u2019s 2015-16 survey data, almost half of student veterans who attend a community college do not apply for federal student aid, and about two-thirds of undergraduate veterans at four-year institutions do not fill out the FAFSA.<\/span><\/span><\/i><u1_p><\/u1_p><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><i><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\">The COVID-19 pandemic has affected all students, regardless of their veteran status or Title IV federal student aid eligibility. All students have experienced disruption to their campus life along with financial distress, including student veterans. Cutting off aid to our student veterans is unconscionable; even asking these students to complete additional paperwork and holding up their relief during a pandemic is unnecessarily burdensome. Congress is currently considering additional funding to assist in COVID-19 recovery, including for emergency financial aid to students, and the Department must not stand in the way of such relief flowing to student veterans.
