What the document says

“The Secretary shall award Workforce Pell Grants under this subsection in the same manner and with the same terms and conditions as the Secretary awards Federal Pell Grants under this section, except that--”

To provide for reconciliation pursuant to title II of H. Con. Res. 14, Sec. 83002

The section requires the new grants to be awarded on the same terms as Pell Grants, except that references to an eligible program mean an eligible workforce program, subsection (d)(2) does not apply, and a student whose course runs shorter than an academic year may still get a grant prorated to the length of the course even if that comes to less than the minimum Pell Grant. No student may take a Workforce Pell Grant and a grant under subsection (b) or (c) at the same time.

What the document actually says

“The Secretary shall award Workforce Pell Grants under this subsection in the same manner and with the same terms and conditions as the Secretary awards Federal Pell Grants under this section, except that--”

To provide for reconciliation pursuant to title II of H. Con. Res. 14, Sec. 83002
That sentence, in plain words

The new grant works like the usual Pell Grant. The changes that follow are the only ones.

What this is about

One is that short courses count. The award is then cut to fit the length. A student may not draw two grants at once.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
