I find in workign with adults that when grants are eliminated, the students or potential students do not continue their education. John you were right on shift to loans. Just last week Congress reverted Pell Grants from 9 to 6 years of eligibility. When going to school part time while working, 6 years is not that long to allow for college. Dangerous private loans become almost all that is available to these adult students who might be only a one or two semesters of hours from graduating. - JPRIII Mon, 23 Jul 2012 07:22:49 +0100
