Proposal to Amend the Higher Education Equal Opportunity Act (ACT 101) Michael Dotts Luis Garcia Traci Keegan Peggy Lee-Clark Gary Means Rachel Wiggans
Background 1971 PA Higher Education Equal Opportunity Act (Act 101) is passed Designed to deliver support services to, “the most disadvantaged students… who are least likely to achieve academic success” without the supports and services provided by Act 101 Students are deemed economically and educationally disadvantaged
Today Act 101 has served students of 76 PA institutions of higher education Currently, there are 37 PA institutions of higher education participating in Act 101 Allocation is now $2.3 million compared to $9.3 million in 07-08
Community Colleges: Who Receives Act 101 Funding?
PASSHE: Who Receives Act 101 Funding?
Issue Act 101 funds cannot be used to pay for tuition, room and board, or other fees PHEAA grant guidelines dictate the number of remedial courses and programs of study for which a student can receive funding Students may only use PHEAA grants to pay for remedial courses during two semesters Many students are thus ineligible for financial aid while completing remedial requirements
Student Impact: Fall 2010 972 • Students attempting remedial credits 443 • Students attempting more than 6 remedial credits • Students attempting more 286 remedial credits than non- remedial credits
Proposed Solution Amend statute by adding section 2510-306: §2510-306 Remedial and Developmental courses taken by Full-Time Students and Part-Time Students shall be considered credit-bearing for the purposes of state grant calculation purposes.
