The Secretary amends the Institutional Eligibility, the Student Assistance General Provisions, the Federal Work-Study (FWS) Programs, and the Federal Pell Grant Program regulations. These final regulations implement changes negotiated under the negotiated rulemaking process mandated by Congress under section 492 of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended, (HEA). These changes streamline the application, reapplication, and certification processes for institutions that wish to participate in the title IV, HEA programs and provide simplification and flexibility in other provisions of the regulations that apply to the title IV HEA programs.
