Earl N. Williams, Sr., First Chance Act

Summary

The bill adds a new grant option to the student support services program, letting colleges award basic living‑expense aid for a student’s first undergraduate year and emergency aid for unexpected costs. It targets students already in the support services program and sets limits on grant amounts and how much of a school’s federal funds can be used. The goal is to help students cover essential costs and stay in school.
