Student Aid Flexibility: Using College Financial Assistance During Pandemic.

New rules aim to ensure that students who received financial aid from their colleges can still use it, even if they delay enrollment or take a leave of absence for up to one academic year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This applies to institutions receiving federal funds and offering fewer in-person classes than before the pandemic. This helps students retain their awarded funds, supporting their education during challenging times.
