    Grants to local educational agencies.--Funds are allocated through 
four formulas--Basic Grants, Concentration Grants, Targeted Grants and 
Education Finance Incentive Grants--for local programs that provide 
extra academic support to help raise the achievement of eligible 
students in high-poverty schools or, in the case of schoolwide programs, 
help all stu

dents in high-poverty schools to meet challenging State academic 
standards. States must annually assess participating students in at 
least reading and mathematics, and school districts must identify for 
improvement, and provide assistance to, schools that for two consecutive 
years do not make adequate yearly progress toward helping all groups of 
students reach the proficient level on the State assessments. Districts 
must provide students attending such schools the choice of attending 
another public school that is not identified for improvement. After 
three or more years of a school not making adequate progress, students 
who remain in the school are permitted to obtain supplemental 
educational services from a public- or private-sector provider. Schools 
that do not improve are subject to progressively stronger corrective 
actions and, after six years of not making adequate yearly progress, 
reconstitution under a restructuring plan.

    Reading first State grants.--Funds provide assistance to State and 
local educational agencies in establishing reading programs for students 
in grades K-3 that are grounded in scientifically based reading 
research, in order to ensure that every student can read at grade level 
or above by the end of third grade.

    Early reading first.--Funds provide assistance to support local 
efforts, through competitive grants, to enhance the school readiness of 
young children, particularly those from low-income families, through 
scientific, research-based strategies and professional development that 
are designed to enhance the verbal skills, phonological awareness, 
letter knowledge, pre-reading skills, and early language development of 
children ages three through five.

    Striving readers.--Funds support the development, implementation, 
and evaluation of scientifically based reading interventions for middle 
school or high school students reading significantly below grade level. 
The program complements the Reading First program, which improves 
reading in elementary schools.

    Literacy through school libraries.--Funds support competitive grants 
to local educational agencies to provide students with increased access 
to up-to-date school library materials and certified professional 
library media specialists.

    High School Interventions.--This new initiative would support 
formula grants to States that wold in turn award the funds competitively 
to local educational agencies to enable those entities to implement 
targeted interventions in high-need secondary schools in order to 
increase student achievement and narrow achievement gaps between 
students from different ethnic and racial groups and between 
disadvantaged students and their more advantaged peers.

    State agency migrant program.--Funds support formula grants to 
States for educational services to children of migratory farmworkers and 
fishers, with resources and services focused on children who have moved 
within the past 36 months.

    State agency neglected and delinquent program.--Funds support 
formula grants to States for educational services to children and youth 
under age 21 in State neglected, delinquent, or adult correction 
facilities.

    Evaluation.--Funds support a series of impact studies designed to 
identify effective reading interventions in Title I and studies of the 
implementation of key No Child Left Behind requirements including 
assessments, accountability systems, school improvement requirements, 
public school choice, and supplemental educational services.

    Impact Aid helps to replace the lost local revenue that would 
otherwise be available to educate federally connected children. The 
presence of certain students living on Federal property, such as 
students who are military dependents or who reside on Indian lands, can 
place a financial burden on local educational agencies that educate 
them. The property on which the children live and their parents work is 
exempt from local property taxes, denying local educational agencies 
access to the primary source of revenue used by most communities to 
finance education.

    Basic support payments.--Payments will be made on behalf of 
approximately 1.0 million federally connected students enrolled in about 
1,250 local educational agencies to assist them in meeting their 
operation and maintenance costs. Average per-student payments will be 
approximately $1,036.

    Payments for children with disabilities.--Payments in addition to 
those provided under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act 
will be provided on behalf of approximately 57,000 federally connected 
students with disabilities in about 860 local educational agencies. 
Average per-student payments will be approximately $881.

    Facilities maintenance.--Funds are used to provide emergency repairs 
for school facilities that serve military dependents and are owned by 
the Department of Education. Funds are also used to transfer the 
facilities to local educational agencies.

    Construction.--Formula payments will be provided to approximately 
180 local educational agencies with large proportions of federally 
connected students. Payments will be made on behalf of about 140,000 
students who are military dependents or who reside on Indian lands. In 
addition, approximately 25 construction grants will be awarded 
competitively to local educational agencies.

    Payments for Federal property.--Payments will be made to 
approximately 200 local educational agencies in which real property 
owned by the Federal Government represents 10 percent or more of the 
assessed value of real property in the local educational agency.

    The Indian Education program supports the efforts of local 
educational agencies and tribal schools to improve teaching and learning 
for the Nation's American Indian and Alaska Native Children.

    Grants to local educational agencies.--Formula grants support local 
educational agencies in their efforts to reform elementary and secondary 
school programs that serve Indian students, with the goal of ensuring 
that such programs assist participating students in meeting the same 
academic standards as all other students. In 2004, the Department made 
1,166 formula grants to local educational agencies and tribal schools 
serving more than 458,000 students.

    Special programs for Indian Children.--The Department makes 
competitive awards for demonstration projects in early childhood 
education, professional development grants, American Indian Teacher 
Corps grants, and grants for the American Indian Administrator Corps. 
The professional development awards in this activity are designed to 
improve the quality of teachers and administrators in school districts 
with concentrations of Indian students.

    National activities.--Funds support research, evaluation, data 
collection, and related activities.

    State Grants:
        Grants to States.--Formula grants are provided to States to 
    assist them in providing special education and related services to 
    children with disabilities ages 3 through 21.
        Preschool grants.--Formula grants provide additional funds to 
    States to further assist them in providing special education and 
    related services to children with disabilities ages 3 through 5 
    served under the Grants to States program.
        The goal of both of these programs is to improve results for 
    children with disabilities by assisting State and local educational 
    agencies to provide children with disabilities with access to high 
    quality education that will help them meet challenging standards and 
    prepare them for employment and independent living.
        Grants for infants and families.--Formula grants are provided to 
    assist States to implement statewide systems of coordinated, 
    comprehensive, multi-disciplinary interagency programs to provide 
    early intervention services to children with disabilities, birth 
    through age 2, and their families.
        The goal of this program is to help States provide a 
    comprehensive system of early intervention services that will 
    enhance child and family outcomes.

    National activities:
        These activities include personnel preparation, technical 
    assistance, and other activities to support State efforts to improve 
    results for children with disabilities under the State Grants 
    programs.
        The goal of National Activities is to link States, school 
    systems, and families to best practices to improve results for 
    infants, toddlers, and children with disabilities. The request 
    includes funds for a new Transition Initiative to help States use 
    data and research-based practices to improve post-school outcomes.
        Performance data related to program goals include:

    Vocational rehabilitation State grants.--The basic State grants 
program provides Federal matching funds to State vocational 
rehabilitation (VR) agencies to assist individuals with physical or 
mental impairments to become gainfully employed. Services are tailored 
to the specific needs of the individual. Priority is given to serving 
those with the most significant disabilities. Current law requires that 
between 1.0 percent and 1.5 percent of the funds appropriated for the VR 
State grants program be set aside for Grants for Indians.

    The program performance measures for this program are based on State 
VR agency performance indicators developed pursuant to Section 106 of 
the Rehabilitation Act. One of these indicators measures the percentage 
of general and combined State VR agencies that assist at least 55.8 
percent of individuals receiving services to achieve an employment 
outcome. In 2003, 66 percent of the agencies met this performance 
criterion. Another measures the percentage of general and combined State 
VR agencies that assist at least 85 percent of individuals with 
employment outcomes to achieve competitive employment. In 2003, 93 
percent of general and combined agencies met this performance criterion. 
The data are based on the approximately 372,250 individuals whose 
service records were closed in 2003 after receiving services.

    The 2006 Budget reflects a multi-year Administration effort to 
reform job training programs, target resources to programs with 
documented effectiveness, and eliminate funding for duplicative and 
overlapping programs. Consistent with this crosscutting reform, the 
budget eliminates funding for three programs (Supported Employment State 
Grants, Projects with Industry, and the Migrant and Seasonal Farmworkers 
program). The services provided by these programs can be provided by the 
larger Vocational Rehabilitation State Grants program.

    Client assistance State grants.--Formula grants are made to States 
to provide assistance in informing and advising clients and applicants 
of benefits available under the Rehabilitation Act and, if requested, to 
pursue legal or administrative remedies to ensure the protection of the 
rights of individuals with disabilities.

    Training.--Grants are made to States and public or nonprofit 
agencies and organizations, including institutions of higher education, 
to increase the number of skilled personnel available for employment in 
the field of rehabilitation and to upgrade the skills of those already 
employed.

    Demonstration and training programs.--Grants are made for programs 
that expand and improve the provision of rehabilitation services or that 
further the purposes of the Rehabilitation Act.

    Protection and advocacy of individual rights.--Formula grants are 
made to State protection and advocacy systems to protect the legal and 
human rights of individuals with disabilities.

    Independent living.--Grants are awarded to States and nonprofit 
agencies to assist individuals with significant disabilities in their 
achievement of self-determined independent living goals. Grants are also 
awarded to provide support services to older blind individuals to 
increase their ability to care for their own needs.

    Program improvement.--Funds are used to promote broad-based planning 
and coordination, improve accountability, and enhance the Department's 
ability to address critical areas of national significance in achieving 
the goals of the Rehabilitation Act. Examples of program improvement 
activities include technical assistance, dissemination, and performance 
measurement activities.

    Evaluation.--Studies are conducted to evaluate the impact and 
effectiveness of various programs authorized under the Rehabilitation 
Act.

    Helen Keller National Center for Deaf-Blind Youths and Adults.--The 
Center provides services to deaf-blind youths and adults and provides 
training and technical assistance to professional and allied personnel 
at its national headquarters center and through its regional 
representatives and affiliate agencies.

    National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research.--The 
Institute carries out a comprehensive and coordinated program of 
rehabilitation research and related activities. Through grants and 
contracts, it supports the conduct and dissemination of research and 
development aimed at improving the lives of individuals with 
disabilities. The Institute also promotes the development and 
utilization of new technologies to assist these individuals in achieving 
greater independence and integration into society.

    Assistive technology.--Grants are made to States to establish or 
expand alternative financing programs to increase access to assistive 
technology for individuals with disabilities.

deafness for students who are deaf and students who are hearing. The 
University also conducts basic and applied research and provides public 
service programs for persons who are deaf and persons who work with 
them.

    Gallaudet operates two elementary and secondary education programs 
on the main campus of the University. The Kendall Demonstration 
Elementary School serves students who are deaf from infancy through age 
15, and the Model Secondary School for the Deaf serves high school age 
students who are deaf. Both schools also develop and disseminate 
information on effective educational techniques and strategies for 
teachers and professionals working with students who are deaf or hard of 
hearing.

[[Page 355]]

    In 2004, the appropriation for Gallaudet represented 64.9 percent of 
the total revenue for university-level programs and 97.1 percent of the 
revenue related to the elementary and secondary schools. In addition, 
the University receives other Federal funds such as student financial 
aid, vocational rehabilitation, Endowment Grant program income, and 
competitive grants and contracts. The request also includes funds for 
the Endowment Grant program.

    The College Housing and Academic Facilities Loans Program and the 
Historically Black College and University Capital Financing Program are 
administered separately, but are consolidated for presentation purposes.

    College Housing and Academic Facilities Loans Program.--Funds for 
this activity pay the Federal costs for administering the College 
Housing and Academic Facilities Loans (CHAFL), College Housing Loans 
(CHL), and Higher Education Facilities Loans (HEFL) programs. Prior to 
1994, these programs provided financing for the construction, 
reconstruction, and renovation of housing, academic, and other 
educational facilities. Although no new loans have been awarded since 
fiscal year 1993, costs for administering the outstanding loans will 
remain through 2030.

    Historically Black College and University Capital Financing 
Program.--The Historically Black College and University (HBCU) Capital 
Financing Program provides HBCUs with access to capital financing for 
the repair, renovation, and construction of classrooms, libraries, 
laboratories, dormitories, instructional equipment, and research 
instrumentation. The Higher Education Amendments of 1992 granted the 
Department authority to enter into insurance agreements with a private 
for-profit Designated Bonding Authority to guarantee no more than 
$375,000,000 in outstanding principal and unpaid accrued interest 
combined. The bonding authority issues the loans and maintains an escrow 
account in which 5 percent of each institution's principal is deposited. 
This amount is estimated to be sufficient to cover all potential 
delinquencies and defaults. No subsidy appropriations are required. The 
2006 Budget provides funds for continuing Federal administrative 
activities only.

    The Federal Financing Bank (FFB) purchases bonds issued by the HBCU 
Designated Bonding Authority. Under the policies governing Federal 
credit programs, bonds purchased by the FFB and supported by the 
Department of Education with a letter of credit create the equivalent of 
a Federal direct loan. HBCU bonds are also available for purchase by the 
private sector, and these will be treated as loan guarantees. However, 
the Department anticipates that all HBCU loans will be financed by the 
FFB.

    The Administration is working with Congress to develop legislation 
reauthorizing programs included in the Higher Education Act. When new 
authorizing legislation is enacted, resources for the affected programs 
will be requested.

    Funding Tables.--The following tables display student aid funds 
available, the number of aid awards, average awards,

[[Page 362]]

and the unduplicated count of recipients from any Federal student aid 
program. The tables include the aid from programs in the Student 
Financial Assistance account, as well as aid from the Federal Family 
Education Loan (FFEL) program, and the William D. Ford Federal Direct 
Loan program. Loan amounts reflect the capital actually loaned, not the 
Federal cost of those loans. The data in these tables include the 
effects of matching funds wherever applicable. The 2006 data in these 
tables reflect the Administration's legislative proposals.

    The resources in this schedule are proposed for later transmittal 
under proposed legislation to reauthorize the Higher Education Act. The 
Administration's Higher Education Act reauthorization proposals, 
including 2006 funding levels for programs in the Student Financial 
Assistance Account, are discussed under the Federal Direct Student Loan 
Program Account. Together with matching funds, this funding would 
provide nearly 7.6 million awards totaling almost $16 billion in 
available aid.

[[Page 363]]

    Federal Pell Grants.--Pell Grants are the single largest source of 
grant aid for postsecondary education. In 2005, more than five million 
undergraduates will receive up to $4,050 to help pay for postsecondary 
education. Undergraduate students establish eligibility for these grants 
under award and need determination rules set out in the authorizing 
statute and the annual appropriations act.

    Campus-based programs.--The Federal Supplemental Educational 
Opportunity Grants, Federal Work-Study, and Federal Perkins Loan 
programs are called the ``campus-based'' programs because participating 
institutions are responsible for administering the programs on their own 
campuses. These programs provide aid administrators with considerable 
flexibility in packaging financial aid awards to best meet student 
needs.

    Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants (SEOG).--Federal 
funds are awarded by formula to qualifying institutions, which use these 
funds to award grants to undergraduate students. While institutions have 
discretion in awarding these funds, they are required to give priority 
to Pell Grant recipients and other students with exceptional need. The 
Federal share of such grants may not exceed 75 percent of the total 
grant.

    Federal Work Study.--Federal funds are awarded by formula to 
qualifying institutions, which provide part-time jobs to eligible 
undergraduate and graduate students. Hourly earnings under this program 
must be at least equal to the Federal minimum wage. Federal funding in 
most cases pays 75 percent of a student's hourly wages, with the 
remaining 25 percent paid by the employer. The Federal Work Study 
program also requires participating institutions to use at least 7 
percent of the total funds granted to compensate students employed in 
community service jobs.

    Perkins Loan Program.--Institutions award low-interest loans from 
Federal revolving funds held at institutions, which are comprised of 
Federal Capital Contributions, institutional matching funds, and student 
repayments on outstanding loans.

    Perkins Loan Program--Cancellations.--The Department of Education 
reimburses Federal revolving funds held at institutions for cancelled 
Perkins loans. Under the Higher Education Act, borrowers are eligible to 
have some or all of their Perkins loan repayment obligation cancelled if 
they enter certain fields of public service after graduation. Perkins 
loan balances are also cancelled in the event of a borrower's death, or 
total and permanent disability. In general, the revolving funds are 
reimbursed for 100 percent of the principal and accrued interest of the 
loan cancelled.

    The Department of Education manages Federal student aid programs 
that will provide over $110 billion in Federal student aid grants and 
loans to 10.2 million students and parents in 2006. Primary 
responsibility for administering these programs lies with the Office of 
Postsecondary Education and the performance-based Office of Federal 
Student Aid (FSA). FSA was created by Congress in 1998 with a mandate to 
improve service to students and other student aid program participants, 
reduce student aid administration costs, and improve accountability and 
program integrity.

    The Department's student aid administrative activities are funded 
from two main sources: (1) funds appropriated on a permanent basis under 
section 458 of the Higher Education Act; and (2) a discretionary 
appropriation partially supporting student aid administrative 
activities. Student aid administrative funds for 2005 totaled $914 
million, $195 million of which supported the payment of account 
maintenance fees to FFEL guaranty agencies.

    The Budget for 2006 includes $939 million for student aid 
administration. In order to improve accountability and simplify program 
oversight and operations, the Administration is proposing to consolidate 
funding for student aid administrative activities into a single 
discretionary account. Funding levels for this account will be based on 
a workload-based methodology consistent with the goals of the 
performance-based organization.

    The Higher Education Amendments of 1998 clarified that reserve funds 
held by public and non-profit guaranty agencies participating in the 
Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) program are Federal property. These 
reserves are used to pay default claims from FFEL lenders and fees to 
support agency efforts to avert defaults. The Federal Government 
reimburses these reserves for default claim payments.

    As discussed under the Federal Direct Student Loan Program Account, 
the Administration is proposing to require guaranty agencies to collect 
a currently optional 1 percent insurance premium paid by borrowers into 
the Federal Student Loan Reserve Fund.

    The following schedule reflects the balances in these guaranty 
agency funds.

    The Federal Government operates two major student loan programs: the 
Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) program--formerly the Guaranteed 
Student Loan (GSL) program--and the William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan 
(Direct Loan) program. For 2006, the President is committed to improving 
the efficiency of both programs and allowing individual institutions to 
choose which of these two programs best meets their needs and the needs 
of their students.

[[Page 367]]

    This summary section outlines the structure of these two programs, 
highlights their differences and similarities, and provides text tables 
displaying program cost data; loan volume, subsidy, default, and 
interest rates; and other descriptive information. As part of his 2006 
Budget, the President is proposing a comprehensive package of student 
aid policy proposals related to the reauthorization of the Higher 
Education Act (HEA). These proposals, which will expand student benefits 
and improve program efficiency, are discussed at the conclusion of this 
program description.

    From its inception in 1965 through 2004, the FFEL program has 
provided over $547 billion in loans to postsecondary students and their 
parents. Since July 1, 1994, the Direct Loan program has provided $150 
billion in new and consolidation loans to students and parents. Taken 
together, the FFEL and Direct Loan programs will make more than $56 
billion in new loans available in 2005. Because funding for these two 
programs is provided on a permanent indefinite basis, for budget 
purposes they are considered separately from other Federal student 
financial assistance programs. The FFEL and Direct Loan programs should 
be viewed in combination with these other programs, however, as part of 
the overall Federal effort to ensure access to higher education.

    Loan capital in the FFEL program is provided by private lenders. 
State and private nonprofit guaranty agencies act as agents of the 
Federal Government, providing a variety of services including collection 
of some defaulted loans, default avoidance activities, and counseling to 
schools, students, and lenders. The Government provides substantial 
payments to these guaranty agencies. The Government also pays interest 
subsidies to lenders for certain borrowers, as well as most costs 
associated with loan defaults and other write-offs.

    The Direct Loan program was created by the Student Loan Reform Act 
of 1993. Under this program, the Federal Government provides loan funds 
to postsecondary institutions directly or through an alternative 
originator. The Direct Loan program began operation in academic year 
1994-1995 with 7 percent of overall loan volume and is expected to 
account for 24 percent in academic year 2005-2006. All eligible 
institutions are free to participate in either the Direct Loan or FFEL 
program.

    The Direct Loan and FFEL programs share many basic elements. Each 
program offers four types of loans: Stafford, Unsubsidized Stafford, 
PLUS for parents, and Consolidation. Evidence of financial need is 
required for a student to receive a subsidized Stafford loan. The other 
three loan programs are available to borrowers at all income levels. 
Loans can be used only to meet qualified educational expenses.

    The borrower interest rate for new Stafford Loans equals the 91-day 
Treasury bill rate plus 1.7 percent during in-school, grace, and 
deferment periods, and the 91-day Treasury bill plus 2.3 percent at all 
other times, with a cap of 8.25 percent, adjusted annually. Interest 
payments for these loans are fully subsidized by the Government while a 
student is in school and during grace and deferment periods. 
Unsubsidized Stafford loans carry the same borrower interest rate as 
Stafford loans, but have no interest subsidy. For new PLUS loans, the 
borrower interest rate equals the 91-day Treasury bill rate plus 3.1 
percent, with a cap of 9 percent and no interest subsidy.

    In the FFEL program, lenders may receive an interest subsidy, called 
a special allowance, from the Government to ensure a guaranteed rate of 
return on their loans. Special allowance payments vary by loan type, are 
determined quarterly, and are based on current borrower interest rates 
and market-yield formulas. For new Stafford and Unsubsidized Stafford 
loans, for example, the Federal Government must pay lenders a special 
allowance if the average 3-month commercial paper rate for a given 
quarter plus 2.34 percent--or 1.74 percent during in-school, grace, or 
deferment periods--is higher than the current interest rate charged 
borrowers.

    Loans funded with the proceeds of tax-exempt securities originally 
issued before October 1, 1993, receive substantially higher special 
allowance payments than are currently paid on other types of loans. The 
Taxpayer-Teacher Protection Act of 2004 temporarily limited the ability 
of loan holders to retain these higher benefits indefinitely by 
refinancing the underlying securities. These temporary provisions are in 
effect through December 31, 2005.

    Consolidation loans allow borrowers to combine loans made under 
Title IV of the Higher Education Act--FFEL, Direct Loans, and Perkins 
Loans--as well as some loans made under the Public Health Service Act. 
The interest rate for new FFEL and Direct Consolidation loans equals the 
weighted average of the interest rate on the loans consolidated, rounded 
up to the nearest one-eighth of one percent. Lenders may choose to offer 
a lower rate. Interest rates for all new FFEL and Direct Consolidation 
Loans are capped at 8.25 percent.

    FFEL borrowers pay an origination fee to the Government equal to 3 
percent of principal, and are also liable for a guaranty agency 
insurance premium of up to 1 percent of principal. Guaranty agencies 
have the option of waiving this premium and FFEL lenders have the option 
of paying some or all of a borrower's origination fee for Stafford Loan 
borrowers.

    Direct Loan borrowers are charged an origination fee equal to 3 
percent of principal, which partially offsets Federal program operation 
costs. Borrowers in both programs may be offered financial incentives to 
encourage prompt repayment.

    Loan limits are also identical across the two programs. In addition, 
loans made under both programs are discharged when borrowers die, are 
totally and permanently disabled, or, under some circumstances, declare 
bankruptcy.

    Under both programs, new borrowers after October 1, 1998, who are 
employed as teachers in schools serving low-income populations for five 
consecutive, complete school years, qualify for up to $5,000 in loan 
forgiveness. The Taxpayer-Teacher Protection Act of 2004 temporarily 
extended this benefit to $17,500 for mathematics, science, and special 
education teachers considered highly qualified under criteria 
established in the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001. These temporary 
provisions affect new borrowers who take out loans between October 1, 
1998, and September 30, 2005; they do not affect borrowers who have 
already received forgiveness benefits.

    Borrowers under Direct Loans may choose from among five repayment 
plans including income-contingent repayment (``pay-as-you-can''), under 
which annual repayment amounts vary based on the income of the borrower 
and the amount borrowed, and payments can be made over 25 years. 
Borrowers may switch between repayment plans at any time. (Income-
contingent repayment is not available to Direct PLUS borrowers).

    FFEL borrowers may choose from among four repayment plans. Repayment 
periods under standard, graduated, and income-sensitive repayment may 
not exceed 10 years. An extended repayment plan of up to 25 years is 
available for new borrowers with outstanding loans totalling more than 
$30,000. FFEL borrowers may change repayment plans annually.

    Reauthorization Proposals. In 2005, the Federal government will 
provide over $70 billion in new grants, loans, and work-study assistance 
to help students pay for postsecondary education, including $57 billion 
in guaranteed and direct student loans and $13 billion in Pell Grants. 
Although the Federal government continues to provide extraordinary 
levels of aid for students, more funds are needed to increase the level 
of Pell Grant aid to low-income students.

    The President proposes a package of reforms to address this problem 
while improving the effectiveness of the Pell

[[Page 368]]

Grant and student loan programs. These reforms will increase the Pell 
Grant maximum award from $4,050 to $4,550 over 5 years and invest 
substantial new funds in student loan borrowers. These proposals would 
also reduce subsidies to various FFEL program participants, who would 
also be required to bear a greater share of overall program risk.

    Federal Pell Grants. The centerpiece of the Administration's budget 
and reauthorization proposal is designed to address the financial need 
of low-income students pursuing a postsecondary education. The 
Administration proposes to assist these students by investing more than 
$19 billion in new mandatory funding for the Pell Grant program from 
2006-2015. These funds would be used to increase the maximum grant award 
by $100 a year each of the next five years, and retire the current $4.3 
billion funding shortfall, putting the program on a firm financial 
footing. The Administration proposes to fund this proposal through 
mandatory savings generated by other reauthorization proposals. The cost 
of operating the Pell Grant program at the current maximum award level 
of $4,050, together with program changes discussed below, would continue 
to be funded through discretionary appropriations. This package of 
programmatic changes also includes a new budget scoring rule that would 
ensure the program is fully funded and shortfalls would not materialize 
in future years.

    While Pell Grants have been very successful in ensuring access to 
postsecondary education for low-income students, the Administration is 
proposing several changes to increase the program's effectiveness and 
improve its overall operation. Pell Grants would be made available year-
round at eligible two- and four-year degree granting institutions, 
giving students a more convenient option for accelerating their studies 
and promptly completing their educations. As a further incentive for 
timely completion, Pell Grant eligibility would be limited to the 
equivalent of 16 semesters. To better target aid to students with the 
greatest financial need, the Administration proposes to index the 
minimum Pell Grant award to the maximum award beginning in 2007. 
Currently, students who qualify for an award between $200 and $400 
receive $400. Indexing would raise the $200 minimum award dollar-for-
dollar with increases in the maximum, without adjusting the $400 actual 
payment; for example, the $100 increase proposed for 2007 would increase 
the minimum award to $300 with a $400 actual payment. With the next $100 
increase, proposed for 2008, the minimum award and actual payment would 
be $400, which would continue to go up in future years as the maximum 
award increases. Lastly, the Administration proposes to eliminate the 
Pell Grant award rule related to tuition sensitivity. This rule limits 
the amount of support that students with greatest need receive while 
attending low-cost institutions.

    The Administration also proposes $33 million for Enhanced Pell 
Grants for State Scholars to encourage students and States to 
participate in the State Scholars program. This program would provide up 
to an additional $1,000 to students completing the rigorous State 
Scholars curriculum in high school. The State Scholars curriculum 
consists of at least three years of mathematics and science, four years 
of English, three and a half years of social studies, and foreign 
language coursework. Currently, thirteen states participate in the 
States Scholars program. Although this new program will operate within 
the larger Pell Grant program, total funding would be capped at $33 
million in 2006. If recipients qualify for more than this amount, a 
process would be developed to allocate awards within the available 
funding level.

    To support these policies the 2006 Budget includes a total of $18.0 
billion for Pell Grants in 2006: $13.2 billion in discretionary funding, 
$4.3 billion in mandatory funding to eliminate the prior year shortfall, 
and an additional $420 million in mandatory funding to fund a $100 
increase in the maximum award to $4,150. Nearly 5.5 million students 
will receive Pell Grants under this proposal.

    Campus-Based Programs. To help fund the higher Pell maximum awards 
and make more funds available to all eligible students, the 
Administration proposes eliminating the Perkins Loan program and 
recalling the federal portion of revolving funds held by participating 
institutions. With the number of Perkins Loan institutions declining 
from 3,338 in academic year 1983-1984 to 1,796 in 2003-2004--and with 
only 3 percent of students enrolled in postsecondary education receiving 
Perkins Loans each year, the Administration believes the federal share 
of funds held by this small group of institutions would better serve 
students if invested in Pell Grants, which serve all eligible students 
regardless of institution. Last year, the PART found the Perkins Loan 
program to be duplicative of the larger guaranteed and direct student 
loan programs. Proposed increases to student loan limits in these 
programs and the continuation of very low interest rates would 
significantly offset the impact of eliminating the Perkins Loan program. 
Under the Administration's proposal, institutions would retain their own 
contributions into Perkins Loan revolving funds. Recalling the federal 
portion of the Perkins Loan funds, less amounts needed to support 
statutory loan forgiveness benefits, will provide $6.0 billion, to help 
offset the costs of the proposed new benefits for all eligible students.

    The Administration is also proposing to phase in revised allocation 
formulae for the SEOG and Work-Study programs under which funding 
distributions are based more directly on institutional need. The current 
allocation formulae have historically distributed a disproportionate 
share of funding to institutions with a long history of program 
participation rather than on the number of low-income students enrolled. 
Since these institutions do not have a higher proportion of low-income 
students, the PART review identified the current formulae as 
problematic.

    Lastly, the Administration proposes to replace the 7 percent 
community service requirements in the Work Study program with a separate 
set-aside equal to 20 percent of the Work-Study appropriation. 
Institutions would apply for these community service funds separate from 
their regular allocation. Program-wide, institutions place 15 percent of 
their students in community service jobs, however, the PART process 
found many individual institutions fail to meet the 7 percent 
requirement. Under the proposed approach, institutions that do not wish 
to participate in community service activities will no longer be 
required to do so and those that do wish to participate will be awarded 
additional funds. Overall, this proposal would double the amount of Work 
Study funds used for community service activities.

    Consistent with these proposals, the 2006 Budget includes $778 
million for SEOG and $990 million for Work-Study, which would generate 
$986 million and $1.2 billion, respectively, in new aid to students. No 
funds are included for the Leveraging Educational Partnerships program.

    Student Loans. The 2006 Budget includes a comprehensive package of 
proposals to make the student loan programs more efficient, cost-
effective vehicles for helping students finance their postsecondary 
educations. Strategic reductions in loan subsidies to financial 
participants in the FFEL Program are specifically tied to operational 
efficiencies and program management improvements that have been realized 
in the last several years. Savings generated from these proposals would 
in large part be reinvested in benefits for students in the Pell Grant 
and the student loan programs.

[[Page 369]]

    To help students meet rising higher education costs, the 
Administration is proposing to increase annual subsidized loan limits to 
$3,500 for first-year students, $4,500 for second year students, and 
annual unsubsidized loan limits to $12,000 for graduate and professional 
students. (The Administration also proposes corresponding increases in 
aggregate loan limits.) The Administration also is proposing to help 
borrowers manage their debt with more flexible extended repayment plans 
for all student loans based on the current Direct Loan model. Lastly, 
the Administration intends to make permanent the teacher loan 
forgiveness provisions of the Taxpayer-Teacher Protection Act of 2004.

    In addition, the Administration is proposing to maintain the current 
variable interest rate formula. The borrower rate on Stafford and 
Unsubsidized Stafford Loans is scheduled to be fixed at 6.8 percent for 
new loans beginning July 1, 2006. Under current interest rate 
projections, this would substantially increase interest rates for most 
borrowers. Rather than increase interest rates for students, the 
Administration proposes spending $4.4 billion to keep interest rates low 
for students and families.

    To encourage lenders to continue to strengthen default prevention 
efforts and in recognition of the strong repayment record associated 
with student loans today, the Administration proposes to reduce the 
amount of loan principal insured against default from 98 to 95 percent 
and better target insurance for lenders identified as exceptional 
performers. The Administration also proposes creating a .25 percent 
annual loan holder fee on the outstanding balance of non-consolidation 
loans in order to recover excess earnings that result from the basic 
program structure. Lastly, the Taxpayer-Teacher Protection Act of 2004's 
provisions related to tax-exempt securities will be made permanent. New 
proposals affecting lenders will reduce federal costs by $8.7 billion 
over 2006-2015.

    To strengthen the financial stability of the guaranty agencies' 
Federal Reserve fund, the Administration is proposing that agencies be 
required to collect the 1 percent insurance premium on all loans 
guaranteed or disbursed after July 1, 2006. The Administration expects 
guaranty agencies to operate more efficiently in the future and proposes 
to reduce incrementally the amount guaranty agencies may retain from 
collections on defaulted loans from 23 percent to roughly 16 percent--
the average paid by the Department of Education to private collection 
agents. Finally, the Administration would provide reduced reinsurance to 
guaranty agencies to correspond to the reduced insurance rate paid to 
lenders in the program. For many guaranty agencies, reinsurance would be 
reduced from the current 95 percent to 92 percent. These changes are 
intended to foster increased guaranty agency default prevention 
activities and improve overall financial management. The latter two 
changes to the guaranty agency system will increase the Federal Student 
Loan Reserve Fund and reduce FFEL program costs by a combined $1.7 
billion over 2006-2015.

    The Administration is also proposing to significantly restructure 
the current Loan Consolidation program to help address the needs of both 
current and former students. Accordingly, the 2006 Budget includes the 
following proposals: replace the current fixed-rate interest formula for 
consolidation loans with the variable rate formula used for student 
loans, placing current and former students on equal terms; allow 
borrowers to reconsolidate on multiple occasions subject to a 1 percent 
borrower origination fee on reconsolidation; eliminate the statutory 
provision limiting borrower ability to choose their consolidation 
lender; and increase the current one-time lender fee on new 
consolidation loans by 50 basis points to 1 percent. Restructuring the 
Loan Consolidation program will reduce program costs by $3.7 billion 
over 2006-2015.

    Taken together, the Administration's proposed student benefits would 
increase student loan program costs by $7.7 billion over 2006-2015. 
Total proposed changes to the FFEL and Direct Loan programs would 
produce net savings of $19 billion over the same period.

    Presidential Math-Science Scholars. The 2006 Budget includes $50 
million for this new program, under which the Department of Education 
would enter into a public-private partnership to award $100 million 
annually in grants to low-income students who pursue studies in math and 
science. The program would provide approximately 20,000 low-income 
students who receive Pell Grants with separate additional awards of up 
to $5,000 each.

    Loans for Short-Term Training. The Administration proposes a new 
loan program, jointly administered by the Department of Education and 
Labor, to help dislocated, unemployed, transitioning, or older workers 
and students. This market-oriented program will allow participants to 
acquire or upgrade specific job-related skills through short-term 
training programs, usually shorter than 10 weeks and not currently 
eligible for Federal student aid. These programs must lead to an 
industry credential, certificate, or employer endorsed technical/
occupational skills.

    Other provisions. The Administration also proposes to reinstate two 
expired provisions affecting institutions with cohort default rates of 
less than 10 percent for the three most recent fiscal years. These 
provisions exempt institutions from the requirements that loans to 
first-year students not be disbursed until 30 days after enrollment and 
all loans be issued in at least two separate disbursements.

    Two provisions restricting schools' eligibility to participate in 
the federal student assistance program are also proposed for 
elimination. The first, which requires 50 percent of a program's courses 
be offered on campus, restricts the availability of distance education. 
The second, requiring at least 10 percent of a school's revenue come 
from non-federal sources, has not been shown to be a reliable indicator 
of institutional quality.

    The Administration proposes to clarify a current provision under 
which student aid applicants who have been convicted of a drug-related 
offense are ineligible for Federal student aid. Under this proposal, the 
current provision would only affect students who commit a drug-related 
offense while enrolled in higher education; incoming students, who are 
currently subject to the provision, would be exempted.

    Lastly, the Administration proposes that military personnel on 
active duty automatically be considered as independent for the purpose 
of determining eligibility for federal student aid.

data; including projected overall Direct Loan and FFEL costs; loan

    \1\ Subsidy rates represent the Federal portion of non-administrative 
costs--principally interest subsidies and defaults--associated with each 
borrowed dollar. For example, a $1,000 loan with Federal subsidy costs of 
$100 would have a subsidy rate of 10 percent.
    \2\ Default rates displayed in this table, which reflect projected 
defaults over the life of a loan cohort, are used in developing program cost 
estimates. The Department uses other rates based on defaults occurring in 
the first two years of repayment to determine institutional eligibility to 
participate in Federal loan programs. These two-year rates tend to be lower 
than those included in this table.
    \3\ These represent average borrower interest rates during repayment for 
a typical borrower under standard repayment over the life of the loan.

    FFEL program payments are made to lenders (interest subsidies, loan 
defaults and discharges) and guaranty agencies (default collection 
costs, administrative services). These payments are partially offset by 
borrower origination fees and lender fees for originations and an annual 
consolidation loan holder fee. In Direct Loans, cash outflows are 
primarily payments to Treasury. Cash inflows include principal and 
interest payments on outstanding Direct Loans.

[[Page 371]]

    The following table shows government payments to and from lenders, 
guaranty agencies, and borrowers for specific years, regardless of when 
loans were originated. These flows do not reflect long-term costs to the 
government, nor the value of outstanding loan assets: these are 
reflected in credit reform subsidy estimates. For example, collections 
on defaulted FFEL loans due to Consolidation produce a current-year cash 
inflow and a long-term cost associated with re-default risk and future 
lender interest subsidy payments.

    The Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990 accounts for differences in 
the amount and timing of cash flows among direct and guaranteed loan 
programs to make cost estimates for these programs comparable with each 
other and other federal programs.

    The following chart compares total FFEL and Direct Loan costs on a 
subsidy rate basis: program costs calculated under the Federal Credit 
Reform Act of 1990 and comparably projected estimates of Federal 
administrative costs, including expenses related to FFEL program 
oversight and servicing the Direct Loan portfolio. As with any long-term 
projection, the comparison is based on assumed future interest rates, 
borrower characteristics, administrative costs, and other factors over 
the life of the loan cohort. To the degree actual conditions differ from 
projections, estimated subsidy rates will change.

    \1\ Fees primarily reflect borrower origination fees and, in FFEL, 
lender origination and consolidation loan holder fees. Other primarily 
reflects loan discharges due to death, disability, or bankruptcy.

    The Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990 requires the cost of existing 
loan cohorts to be reestimated to reflect changes in actual and assumed 
borrower behavior, interest rates, and other factors. The following 
table shows the impact of these reestimates in FFEL and Direct Loans.

                   Loan Disbursement and Subsidy Costs

                     Total Subsidy Costs--1992-2004

                                        FFEL     Direct Loans
Original Subsidy Costs..............+$46 billion -$2 billion
Cumulative Reestimates.............. -$7 billion +$5 billion
1992-2004 Subsidy Costs.............+$39 billion +$3 billion
    Total Disbursements.............$413 billion$146 billion

    Changes in interest rate projections are a significant factor in 
FFEL and Direct Loan reestimates; recent declines in interest rates 
below historical averages have accordingly been a major driver in 
changes to program costs. Changes in borrower behavior (notably, 
prepayment of loans through consolidation and reduction in defaults) 
have also contributed to these reestimates. The average lifetime subsidy 
rate for all outstanding FFEL loans after the most recent reestimate is 
9.40; the comparable Direct Loan rate is 1.76. For the oldest loan 
cohorts, many of the subsidy costs have been expended (e.g., in-school 
interest subsidies).

    The Balance Sheet, above, provides information on program assets, 
liabilities, and net position consistent with the audited financial 
statements.

    Receivables, line 1106, are primarily upward reestimates prepared 
for financial statements; an identical offsetting amount is recorded in 
the Allowance for Subsidy, line 1405. The value of total Department 
assets is unchanged but will be reduced when reestimates developed for 
this budget are executed. Differences between reestimates prepared for 
financial statements and for this budget result from updated economic 
(interest rates) and technical assumptions. Revised assumptions may 
significantly change reestimate amounts; differences will be reflected 
in subsequent financial statements.

    Direct Loans receivable, line 1401 reflects the nominal unpaid 
principal balance, including capitalized interest. Interest Receivable, 
line 1402, includes only non-capitalized interest. A positive Allowance 
for Subsidy, line 1405, indicates the outstanding portfolio (including 
the Financial Statements' reestimates) has a negative subsidy, 
increasing the portfolio's net present value; the 2003 negative value 
represents the reverse.

    As required by the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, this non-
budgetary account records all cash flows to and from the Government 
resulting from Direct Loans. The amounts in this account are a means of 
financing and are not included in the budget totals.

    As required by the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, this program 
account records the subsidy costs associated with Federal Family 
Education Loans (FFEL), formerly guaranteed student loans (GSL), 
committed in 1992 and beyond. Beginning with the 1993 cohort, mandatory 
administrative costs, specifically contract collection costs, are 
included in the FFEL subsidy estimates of each year's cohort. Subsidy 
amounts are estimated on a net present value basis.

    A description of the FFEL program and accompanying tables are 
included under the Federal Direct Student Loan program account.

    Loans for Short Term Training--The Administration proposes a new 
loan program, jointly administered by the Departments of Education and 
Labor, to help dislocated, unemployed, transitioning, or older workers 
and students. This market-oriented program will allow participants to 
acquire or upgrade specific job-related skills through short-term 
training programs. These programs are usually shorter than 10 weeks and 
are not currently eligible for Federal student aid. These programs must 
lead to an industry credential, certificate, or employer endorsed 
technical/occupational skills.

    As required by the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, this account 
records, for this program, the subsidy costs associated with the direct 
loans obligated and loan guarantees committed in 1992 and beyond 
(including modifications of direct loans or loan guarantees that 
resulted from obligations or commitments in any year). The subsidy 
amounts are estimated on a present value basis.
