I realize this may hurt some people. The PELL grant is intended for Bachelors degrees and I think it's more than fair that they allow you to access the funds for an additional 2 years beyond the norm. With the abuse/misuse of college funding being so widespread its fortunate they didn't impose stricter limits than this.
I also understand that we can expect cuts to the PELL grant amounts in the next few years.
I support this type of need based aid...I used it for three semesters myself... but its also right that there be limits to the handout. People need to take personal responsibility, work smart, and make the most of their opportunities. I think this sort of change will encourage that.

I'm always happy to complete the free application waiver for those applying to WGU (I get a free gift from WGU for this). Just PM me your first/last name and a valid email so I can complete their form.
