Pell for Students who are Incarcerated Experimental Site Initiative
OMB 1845-0139 · ED/FSA.
OMB 1845-0139
Through the Pell for Students who are Incarcerated experiment (also known as Second Chance Pell) the Department of Education will provide selected eligible postsecondary institutions with a waiver to the current statutory ban on incarcerated individuals, who are otherwise eligible, from receiving Federal Pell Grant funds to attend eligible postsecondary programs. The experiment aims to test whether participation in high-quality educational opportunities increases after access to financial aid for incarcerated adults is expanded and to examine how waiving the restriction influences individual academic and life outcomes. This is a reinstatement of the information collection instrument that is used by the Department to select qualified institutions.
The latest form for Pell for Students who are Incarcerated Experimental Site Initiative expires 2022-10-31 and is listed under ICR 201905-1845-004.
