Summary
The IGNITE HBCU Excellence Act would let the Secretary award competitive, multi‑year grants to historically Black colleges and universities for major campus improvements. Grants are prioritized for schools with the greatest need, limited fundraising ability, high numbers of low‑income students, and other factors. Technical assistance and consideration of prior federal loans are also built in.
