Bill Summary

College Completion and Success Act

AI Summary

This bill, the College Completion and Success Act, amends the institutional refunds provision of the Higher Education Act of 1965. The key changes include: (1) specifying that a student who is enrolled in a modular program is not considered withdrawn if their change in attendance status is within the payment period, rather than a discontinuance of attendance; (2) providing institutions with discretion to determine whether to make all or a portion of a late or post-withdrawal disbursement to the student; (3) clarifying the institution's responsibility to return unearned Title IV funds within 60 days, while the student is not responsible for returning unearned assistance, though the institution may require the student to pay up to 10% of the amount owed; and (4) providing more detailed guidance on determining a student's withdrawal date, particularly for institutions that are required to take attendance.
