Central Texas higher education institutions and students are set to receive more than $250 million from the latest federal pandemic relief package.
The money is part of $36 billion from the American Rescue Plan, signed by President Joe Biden in March, allotted to help colleges and universities respond to the coronavirus pandemic.
Of the money provided to institutions, roughly half must go directly to student relief, the Department of Education announced Tuesday. That assistance will now be available to all students, a change from a Trump administration rule that left undocumented and international students out of pandemic relief. Wrongful Trump restrictions have been removed so that Dreamers now qualify just like other students, U.S. Rep. Lloyd Doggett, D-Austin, said in a statement. Good news for our Dreamers, who have faced so much uncertainty, and for all students and higher education leaders, who have encountered so many pandemic challenges.
