Title XV

Title XV of the Higher Education Act primarily governs federal student financial aid programs, including grants, loans, and work-study opportunities for students attending post-secondary institutions. It sets the rules for how colleges and universities qualify for federal funds, ensures transparency and accountability, and manages the distribution of aid. The aim is to make higher education more accessible by providing financial assistance to eligible students, particularly those with limited financial resources, while maintaining standards for program integrity and safeguarding public investment in higher education.
