Dear Financial Aid Officers,
We are aware of the layoff actions today and the potential for an Executive Order related to the Department of Education. It is our understanding that these actions will not impact current funding provided by the Department of Education, including federal student financial aid. With the spring term starting back in January, most students have already received their financial aid, and disbursements will continue throughout the semester. We are working to learn more about the impacts of these action and the potential Executive Order and when more guidance is provided by relevant authorities, we will update you with additional information through our federal updates page and alerts as necessary.
