After students fill out a federal aid application, the government distributes the money to the different universities based on calculated student need. One of the things that helps Campbell offer education is the different types of federal aid like the Pell Grant. The amount of tuition covered by the Pell Grant has been decreasing, according to a 1999 Committee on Education and Workforce press release. College tuition grew faster than inflation from 1980 to 1998, while the maximum award of the Pell Grant fell 4.7 percent. Campbell has also experienced several tuition hikes in the past, though students will not be able to find out next semester's tuition costs until the trustees vote on it in the spring.
Past trends indicate frequent tuition hikes.
Bush reassures the public that he hasn't forgotten his promises in his proposal. Though it does not encompass every aspect of the education reforms I plan to propose, this blueprint will serve as a framework from which we can all work together. The Democrats didn't wait for Bush, either. With either plan, students at Campbell will find the extra financial aid beneficial. An increase would help not to stress over finances.
