Student aid tied to college hiring checks
If enacted, colleges would need to use E-Verify and follow hiring rules to keep federal student aid. Any school found violating 8 U.S.C. 1324a, or not using E-Verify, could lose eligibility for Pell Grants and federal loans. DHS would check every 6 months and tell Education within 10 days after any finding. This would take effect upon enactment. Students at affected schools could face higher out-of-pocket costs.
