Additional Fact Sheet for Prison Education Programs
On March 31, 2023 we posted a Fact Sheet for confined or incarcerated students stating that they may be able to access Pell Grants to pay for postsecondary education beginning July 1, 2023. We are pleased to announce that we have posted an additional Fact Sheet that provides Accrediting Agencies with information as it pertains to their role in the prison education program approval process. This Fact Sheet can be found on the Prison Education Programs Topics page on Federal Student Aid’s Knowledge Center.
Each time we post a Prison Education Program Fact Sheet, we will inform the community through an Electronic Announcement on the Knowledge Center.
