1To account for the Administration's ESEA reauthorization proposal, the 2013 Budget eliminates the $1.7 billion advance appropriation
that was previously in the Education Improvement Programs account and replaces it with corresponding increases to advance
appropriations in the Accelarating Achievement and Ensuring Equity account ($841 million) and the Special Education account
($841 million). Total advance appropriations in the Department of Education remain $21.9 billion.
The Administration is proposing legislation reauthorizing programs included in the Elementary and Secondary Education Act
(ESEA), including programs in this account. Consistent with this reauthorization proposal, the Budget proposes to realign
programs in ESEA accounts. When new authorizing legislation is enacted, resources will be requested for these programs. See
the "Legislative proposal, not subject to PAYGO" schedule for additional details.

The resources in this schedule are proposed for later transmittal under proposed legislation to reauthorize the Elementary
and Secondary Education Act of 1965.
College- and career-ready students (formerly Grants to local educational agencies)._Funds would be allocated via formula for programs that provide academic support to help students in high-poverty schools meet
college- and career-ready standards. States would assess annually all students in certain grades in at least English language
arts and mathematics, and use the results of these assessments to measure local educational agency (LEA) and school progress
in ensuring that all students are meeting, or are on track to meet, college- and career-ready standards; to inform families
about whether their children are meeting or are on track to meet such standards; and, with additional information, to develop
appropriate improvement and support strategies for schools and LEAs. States would develop systems for differentiating among
schools and LEAs on the basis of performance, including recognition and rewards for highly effective schools and LEAs, the
implementation of rigorous school intervention models in the lowest-achieving schools, and State-approved, research-based
interventions in low-performing schools that are not serving their students well.
School turnaround grants._Funds would primarily support grants to States to help LEAs turn around their lowest-achieving schools by implementing one
of four rigorous school intervention models. In general, such schools would rank in the bottom 5 percent of performance in
their States, based on proficiency rates and lack of progress, or, in the case of high schools, have a graduation rate below
60 percent. Once States have served their lowest-achieving schools, funds could be used for other school improvement and
support efforts in eligible schools.
State agency migrant program._Funds would 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 children and youth education program._Funds would support formula grants to States for educational services to neglected or delinquent children and youth in State-run
institutions, attending community day programs, and in other correctional facilities.
Homeless children and youth education._Funds would support formula grants to States to provide educational and support services that enable homeless children and
youth to attend and achieve success in school.

available until expended, shall be for facilities maintenance under section 8008: Provided, That for purposes of computing the amount of a payment for an eligible local educational agency under section 8003(a) for
school year 2011–2012, children enrolled in a school of such agency that would otherwise be eligible for payment under section
8003(a)(1)(B) of such Act, but due to the deployment of both parents or legal guardians, or a parent or legal guardian having
sole custody of such children, or due to the death of a military parent or legal guardian while on active duty (so long as
such children reside on Federal property as described in section 8003(a)(1)(B)), are no longer eligible under such section,
shall be considered as eligible students under such section, provided such students remain in average daily attendance at
a school in the same local educational agency they attended prior to their change in eligibility status.] (Department of Education Appropriations Act, 2012.)

The resources in this schedule are proposed for later transmittal under proposed legislation to reauthorize the Elementary
and Secondary Education Act of 1965.
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 950,000 federally connected students enrolled in about 1,200 local educational
agencies to assist them in meeting their operation and maintenance costs. Average per-student payments will be approximately
$1,200.
Payments for children with disabilities._Payments in addition to those provided under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) will be provided on behalf
of approximately 54,000 federally connected students with disabilities in about 900 local educational agencies. Average per-student
payments will be approximately $900.
Facilities maintenance._Funds will be used to provide emergency repairs for school facilities that serve military dependents and are owned by the
Department of Education. Funds will also be used to transfer the facilities to local educational agencies.
Construction._Approximately 12 construction grants will be awarded competitively to the highest-need impact aid districts for emergency
repairs and modernization of school facilities.

1To account for the Administration's ESEA reauthorization proposal, the 2013 Budget eliminates the $1.7 billion advance appropriation
that was previously in the School Improvement Programs account (renamed the Education Improvement Programs account) and replaces
it with corresponding increases to advance appropriations in the Education for the Disadvantaged account ($841 million, renamed
the Accelerating Achievement and Ensuring Equity account) and the Special Education account ($841 million). Total advance
appropriations in the Department of Education remain $21.9 billion.
The Administration is proposing legislation reauthorizing the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), including programs
in this account. Consistent with this reauthorization proposal, the Budget proposes to realign programs in ESEA accounts.
When new authorizing legislation is enacted, resources will be requested for these programs. See the "Legislative proposal,
not subject to PAYGO" schedule for additional details.

educational equity related to issues of race, gender, and national origin.
Supplemental education grants._Funds support grants to the Federated States of Micronesia and to the Republic of the Marshall Islands in place of grant programs
in which those Freely Associated States no longer participate pursuant to the Compact of Free Association Amendments Act of

meet the requirements of the ESEA.

The resources in this schedule are proposed for later transmittal under proposed legislation to reauthorize the Elementary
and Secondary Education Act of 1965.
Effective teaching and learning: literacy._Funds would support competitive grants to States to support the development and implementation of comprehensive State and
local efforts to provide high-quality literacy programs, aligned with college- and career-ready English-language arts standards,
for students from preschool through grade 12.
Effective teaching and learning: science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM)._Funds would support competitive grants to States to implement comprehensive strategies to improve the teaching and learning
of STEM subjects.
Effective teaching and learning for a well-rounded education._Funds would support competitive grants to States and high-need school districts to develop and expand innovative practices
to improve teaching and learning in the arts, health education, foreign languages, civics and government, history, geography,
environmental education, economics, financial literacy, and other subjects.
College pathways and accelerated learning._Funds would support competitive grants to high-need school districts for programs that prepare students to enter and succeed
in college by providing college-level and other accelerated courses and instruction in middle and high schools as well as
accelerated learning opportunities in elementary schools.
Assessing achievement._Funds would support formula and competitive grants to States to develop and implement assessments that are aligned with college-
and career-ready academic standards.
Rural education._Funds would support formula grants under two programs: Small, Rural School Achievement and Rural and Low-Income Schools.
The Small, Rural School Achievement program provides rural local educational agencies with small enrollments with additional
formula funds. Funds under the Rural and Low-Income School program, which targets rural local educational agencies that serve
concentrations of poor students, are allocated by formula to States, which in turn allocate funds to eligible local educational
agencies.
Native Hawaiian student education._Funds would support competitive grants to public and private entities to develop or operate innovative projects that enhance
the educational services provided to Native Hawaiian children and adults.
Alaska Native student education._Funds would support competitive grants to school districts and other public and private organizations to develop or operate
innovative projects that enhance the educational services provided to Alaska Native children and adults.

The resources in this schedule are proposed for later transmittal under proposed legislation to reauthorize the Elementary
and Secondary Education Act of 1965.
Promise neighborhoods._Funds would support competitive grants and other activities for projects designed to improve significantly the educational
and developmental outcomes of children within the Nation's most distressed communities, with the goal of transforming those
communities so that all children in the community have access to a cradle-through-college-to-career continuum of academic
programs and community supports, including effective schools and services.
Successful, safe, and healthy students._Funds would support competitive grants and other activities to assist States, local educational agencies (LEAs), and partnerships
between LEAs and non-profit organizations or local government entities in improving school climate; reducing or preventing
drug use, violence, bullying, or harassment; and promoting and supporting the physical and mental well-being of students so
that schools are safe, healthy, and drug-free environments.
21st century community learning centers._Funds would support competitive grants to States, LEAs, non-profit organizations, or local governmental entities for projects
that provide the additional time, support, and enrichment activities needed to improve student achievement, including expanding
learning time by significantly increasing the number of hours in a regular school schedule and comprehensively redesigning
the school schedule for all students in a school. All local projects would provide additional time for students to participate
in (1) academic activities that are aligned with the instruction those students receive during the regular school day and
are targeted to their academic needs; and (2) enrichment and other activities that complement the academic program. Projects
could also provide teachers the time they need to collaborate, plan, and engage in professional development within and across
grades and subjects.

The resources in this schedule are proposed for later transmittal under proposed legislation to reauthorize the Elementary
and Secondary Education Act of 1965.
Race to the top._Funds would support grants to State educational agencies (SEAs) and local educational agencies (LEAs) to implement systemic
reforms in five areas where fundamental reforms are most needed: implementing rigorous standards and assessments; using data
to improve instruction and decision-making; recruiting and retaining effective teachers and principals; turning around the
lowest-performing schools; and improving State systems of early learning and care. Funds would enable the program to deepen
its investments in reforming elementary and secondary education, as well as provide resources for the Early Learning Challenge
program to support improving outcomes in early childhood education.
Investing in innovation._Funds would support grants to LEAs or to nonprofit organizations in consortium with one or more schools or LEAs to develop
and expand innovative strategies and practices that have been shown to be effective in improving educational outcomes for
students. A portion of the funds would be used to launch the Advanced Research Projects Agency—Education, which would pursue
breakthrough developments in educational technologies and other strategies for raising achievement. Funds may also be used
for "pay-for-success" projects, such as projects that make use of performance-based contracts or social impact bonds, to engage
social investors, the Federal Government, and a State or local community to collaboratively finance effective interventions.
Effective teachers and leaders State grants._Funds would support formula grants to States and LEAs to promote and enhance the teaching profession; recruit, prepare, develop,
reward, and retain effective and highly effective teachers, principals, and other school leaders and foster excellent instructional
teams, especially in high-need LEAs, schools, fields, and subjects; ensure the equitable distribution of effective and highly
effective teachers and principals; increase the effectiveness of teachers and principals; strengthen teacher and principal
evaluation systems; ensure that teachers have the knowledge, skills, data, support, and collaborative opportunities needed
to be effective in the classroom; and improve the management of the education workforce in States and LEAs. The Department
would reserve up to 25 percent of the appropriation for this program to build evidence on how to best recruit, train, and
support effective teachers and school leaders; recruit and prepare effective science, technology, engineering, and mathematics
teachers; and invest in efforts to enhance the teaching and leadership professions.
Teacher and leader innovation fund._Funds would support competitive grants to States and LEAs willing to implement bold approaches to improving the effectiveness
of the education workforce in high-need schools and districts by creating the conditions needed to identify, reward, retain,
and advance effective teachers, principals, and school leadership teams in those schools, and enabling schools to build the
strongest teams possible.
Teacher and leader pathways._Funds would support continuation costs for the School Leadership, Teacher Quality Partnership, and Transition to Teaching
programs.
Expanding educational options._Funds would support competitive grants to SEAs, charter school authorizers, charter management organizations, LEAs, and other
nonprofit organizations to start or expand high-performing charter and other autonomous public schools in high-need areas.
Magnet schools assistance._Funds would support competitive grants to LEAs to establish and operate magnet school programs that are part of an approved
desegregation plan.
Fund for the improvement of education: programs of national significance._Funds would support nationally significant projects to improve the quality of elementary and secondary education, including
an interagency initiative to strengthen services provided to disconnected youth and continuation of efforts to improve the
quality, analysis, and reporting of elementary and secondary education performance data. Funds would also go towards an evidence-based
math initiative and to support the Institute of Education Sciences (IES) in becoming a resource for improving the evidence
base for STEM programs across the Federal Government.

1To account for the Administration's ESEA reauthorization proposal, the 2013 Budget eliminates the $1.7 billion advance appropriation
that was previously in the School Improvement Programs account (renamed the Education Improvement Programs account) and replaces
it with corresponding increases to advance appropriations in the Education for the Disadvantaged ($841 million, renamed the
Accelerating Achievement and Ensuring Equity account) and Special Education ($841 million) accounts. Total advance appropriations
in the Department of Education remain the same at $21.9 billion.
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 three through five 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 two, 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 and development, 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.
Special Olympics education programs._This program funds activities that promote the expansion of the Special Olympics and the design and implementation of Special
Olympics education programs.
PROMISE: Promoting Readiness of Minors in SSI._This program funds demonstration programs in select States to improve the provision and coordination of existing services
for which children receiving Supplemental Security Income and their families are already eligible. The goal of this program
is to improve outcomes for SSI child recipients and their families. A portion of these funds may be used for Pay for Success
bonds to engage social investors, the Federal Government, and a State or local community to collaboratively finance effective
interventions.

to have continued in education." The Department of Education revised its data collection forms to include these additional
items, which track additional students with disabilities ages 14 and older who leave special education, and are mutually exclusive
with other categories included in this table. Because this is the case, the percentages reported in this table are not comparable
with percentages reported in the same table in previous years.

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 2010, 48 percent
of the agencies met this performance criterion. Another indicator 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 2010,
95 percent of general and combined agencies met this performance criterion. These outcome data are based on the approximately
331,310 individuals whose service records were closed in 2010 after receiving services.
The request for the VR State Grants program reflects the Administration's proposal to consolidate the funds of the smaller
VR-related programs and eliminate their separate funding authorities under the Rehabilitation Act in order to reduce duplication
of effort and administrative costs, streamline program administration at the Federal and local level, and improve accountability.
A total of $35.657 million would be made available to the VR State Grants program from the consolidation of employment-related
programs. The request also includes $10 million to be set aside to support a cross-agency Workforce Innovation Fund (WIF)
that would be jointly administered by the Departments of Education and Labor to test innovative strategies and replicate evidence-based
practices in the workforce system. The Fund is described in more detail in the Title V General Provisions. The FY 2013 request
also includes language that would allow the Secretary to use amounts provided in this Act for the VR State Grants program
that remain available subsequent to the reallotment of funds to States pursuant to section 110(b) of the Rehabilitation Act
to support innovative activities aimed at improving outcomes for individuals with disabilities, including activities under
the PROMISE program in the Special Education account. A portion of these funds may be used for Pay for Success bonds to engage
social investors, the Federal Government, and a State or local community to collaboratively finance effective interventions.
Client assistance State grants._Formula grants are made to States to provide assistance in informing and advising clients and applicants about 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. Funds currently provided to State VR agencies to support in-service training for agency personnel
under section 302(g)(3) of the Training program ($5.327 million) would be included in the VR State Grants consolidation.
Demonstration and training programs._Competitive grants and contracts are awarded to expand and improve the provision and effectiveness of programs and services
authorized under the Rehabilitation Act or further the purposes of the Act in promoting the employment and independence of
individuals with disabilities in the community. Funds are used to support model demonstrations, technical assistance, and
projects designed to improve program performance and the delivery of vocational rehabilitation and independent living services.
Independent living._Grants are awarded to States and consumer-controlled nonprofit organizations 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.
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.
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. Funds would also be used to conduct rigorous evaluations
of programs and activities 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.
Assistive technology._Assistive Technology (AT) programs support AT State formula grants to implement comprehensive Statewide programs designed
to maximize the ability of individuals with disabilities of all ages to obtain assistive technology. States conduct activities
that include alternative financing programs, device reutilization programs, device loan programs, and device demonstrations.
Formula grants are also provided under the AT Protection and Advocacy program to systems established under the Developmental
Disabilities Assistance and Bill of Rights Act for protection and advocacy services to assist individuals with disabilities
of all ages. Funds also support national technical assistance activities for these formula grant programs.

This institution provides undergraduate, continuing education, and graduate programs related to deafness for students who
are deaf and hard of 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 the Laurent Clerc National Deaf Education Center, which includes 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 (MSSD) serves high school age students who are deaf. The
Clerc Center also develops and disseminates information on effective educational techniques and strategies for teachers and
professionals working with students who are deaf or hard of hearing.
In 2011, the appropriation for Gallaudet represented approximately 69 percent of total revenue for the University. Approximately
25 percent of the Federal appropriation was used to support activities at the Clerc Center, which received nearly 100 percent
of its revenue through the appropriation. 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 includes
funds that may be used for the Endowment Grant program, and for construction.

As required by the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, this account records the subsidy costs associated with the direct loans
obligated and loan guarantees committed in 1992 and beyond, as well as any administrative expenses for the College Housing
and Academic Facilities Loans Program and the Historically Black College and University Capital Financing Program. The subsidy
amounts are estimated on a present value basis; the administrative expenses are on a cash basis. These programs are administered
separately but consolidated in the Budget for presentation purposes.
College Housing and Academic Facilities Loans Program._Funds for this activity pay the Federal costs of 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 1993, the Department of Education will incur costs for administering the outstanding
loans 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 authorizing statute gives the Department authority to enter into insurance agreements with
a private for-profit Designated Bonding Authority. The bonding authority issues the loans and maintains an escrow account
in which 5 percent of each institution's principal is deposited. The Budget requests $20.150 million in new loan subsidies,
allowing the program to guarantee an estimated $320 million in new loans in 2013. The Budget also requests a 2-year period
of availability for this loan subsidy. In addition, the Budget requests funds for the Federal costs of administering the
program and providing technical assistance activities that improve the financial stability of HBCUs.

As required by the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, this non-budgetary account records all cash flows to and from the Federal
Government resulting from direct loans obligated in 1996 and beyond. 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 amounts in this account are a means of financing and are
not included in the budget totals.

Notes._Figures include, in all years, institutional matching share of defaulted notes assigned from institutions to the Education
Department.
Funding from the Student Financial Assistance account and related matching funds would provide over 12.5 million awards totaling
more than $39.8 billion in available aid in award year 2013–2014.
Federal Pell grants._Pell Grants are the single largest source of grant aid for postsecondary education. Funding for this program is provided
from two sources: discretionary appropriations and, beginning in 2008, mandatory funding authorized under the College Cost
Reduction and Access Act of 2007. The Recovery Act provided additional discretionary and mandatory budget authority in 2009.
In 2010, the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act provided additional budget authority for 2011 and also changed how
the mandatory add-on to a student's Pell Grant is calculated and funded. In 2011, the Budget Control Act and the 2011 appropriations
act made changes to the eligibility for the Pell program (in particular, ending the costly year-round Pell which allowed students
to draw two full Pell awards in one year) and to the student loan programs, and used the budgetary savings to provide additional
mandatory budget authority to the Pell program. Finally, the 2012 appropriations act made changes to Pell eligibility and
student loan benefits, and reinvested the savings into the Pell program.
In 2013, more than 9.7 million undergraduates will receive up to $4,860 from the discretionary award and an additional $775
from the mandatory add-on 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 annual appropriations act. The Budget
request includes $36.1 billion for Pell Grants in 2013, of which $22.8 billion is discretionary, to support a projected maximum
award of $5,635.
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 these grants cannot exceed 75 percent of the total grant. The
2013 Budget includes $735 million for SEOG, which would generate $930 million in aid to 1.4 million students.
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 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 seven percent of their total funds for students employed
in community service jobs. The 2013 Budget includes $1.13 billion for Work-Study, which would generate $1.35 billion in aid
to 793,000 students, an increase of $150 million over the 2012 level.
Federal Perkins loans._Institutions award low-interest loans from institutional revolving funds, which are comprised of Federal Capital Contributions,
institutional matching funds, and student repayments on outstanding loans. No new Federal Capital Contributions have been
appropriated since 2004. The Budget proposes to modernize and expand the Perkins Loan program so more colleges can participate
and more students receive access to these loans. The proposal would increase, beginning on July 1, 2013, the annual loan
amounts available to students to $8.5 billion from the current $1 billion. Rather than operating through institutional revolving
funds, the Federal Government would originate and service Perkins Loans. Loan volume would be allocated among degree-granting
institutions. This new formula will encourage colleges to control costs and offer need-based aid to prevent excessive indebtedness.
Schools would have some discretion about student eligibility. Perkins Loan borrowers would be charged a 6.8 percent interest
rate, the same as in the Unsubsidized Stafford Loan program. These loans would accrue interest while students are in school
and other loan terms and conditions would be the same as current Unsubsidized Stafford loans. As current Perkins Loan borrowers
repay their loans, schools would remit the Federal share of those payments to the Department of Education, beginning at the
statutory date described in the Higher Education Act of 1965. Schools would retain their own share of the revolving funds,
as well as amounts sufficient to cover the costs of the various Perkins Loan forgiveness provisions. Mandatory loan subsidy
costs of this proposal would reduce 2013 outlays by $648 million and are displayed in the Federal Perkins Loan program account.
Iraq and Afghanistan service grants._This program, which became effective July 1, 2010, provides non-need-based grants to students whose parent or guardian was
a member of the Armed Forces and died in Iraq or Afghanistan as a result of performing military service after September 11,
2001. Service Grants are equal to the maximum Pell Grant for a given award year. The Administration anticipates spending
$334,000 to support an estimated maximum of 1,000 awards in 2013.
Funding tables._The following tables display student aid funds available, the number of aid awards, average awards, and the unduplicated count
of recipients from each Federal student aid program. Loan amounts reflect the amount actually loaned to borrowers, not the
Federal cost of these loans. The data in these tables include matching funds wherever appropriate. The 2013 data in these
tables reflect the Administration's legislative proposals.

The Department of Education manages Federal student aid programs that will provide over $193 billion in new Federal student
aid grants and loans to 15 million students and parents in 2013. Primary responsibility for administering these programs
lies with the Office of Postsecondary Education and the performance-based Federal Student Aid (FSA), which are both overseen
by the Office of the Under Secretary. 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.
Student Aid Administration
The 2013 Budget includes $726 million for student aid administration and $400 million for loan servicing activities, for a
total of $1.126 billion in discretionary budget authority. It also proposes to transfer the Health Education Assistance Loan
(HEAL) Program from the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) to the Secretary of Education (ED) and includes a transfer
of $3 million in discretionary funds from HHS to ED to service the HEAL portfolio.
In addition, the 2013 Budget includes $359 million in mandatory funds for administrative costs of servicing contracts with
not-for-profit loan servicers. These funds primarily support processing student aid applications; providing and tracking
aid awards to students, parents, and schools; promoting efforts to reach key student populations; and simplifying the student
aid application. The Budget also includes $8 million in mandatory funds for administering the new proposed Perkins Loan program,
described in the Student Financial Assistance account.
Servicing Cost Assumptions:
The following table details the major assumptions driving servicing costs for Federal student loans. Servicing costs are
largely determined by volume (average borrower accounts per month) and the average contractual unit costs negotiated to service
the volume. Average borrower accounts per month are calculated by the distribution of new unique borrower accounts to one
of the multiple servicers contracted with the Department. Currently, the Department contracts with six servicers, through
the Common Servicers for Borrowers (CSB) contract, the Title IV Additional Servicers (TIVAS) contract, and the new Not-For-Profit
Servicers (NFP) contract. The average unit cost to service each borrower is derived by contractual pricing schedules based
on different borrower statuses (e.g., in-school, in-grace/current repayment, deferment/forbearance, and delinquency). Differences
in distribution among loan statuses will affect overall unit costs due to different pricing for different statuses (e.g.,
in-repayment borrowers cost more to service than in-school borrowers).
Trends in Assumptions:
The increases in average unit cost from 2011 to 2012, and 2012 to 2013, are partly due to the maturity of the 100 percent
Direct Loan portfolio as more loans shift from in-school to in-repayment, and the assumption that borrowers will be shifted
from the CSB servicer to new NFP servicers, in accordance with Section 2212 of the Health Care and Education Reconciliation
Act of 2010 (Pub.L. 111–152, 124 Stat. 1029).

These need-based programs provided grants to full- and part-time students who were eligible to receive a Pell Grant. Eligibility
for second-, third-, and fourth-year students was based on maintenance of a 3.0 grade point average. The Ensuring Continued
Access to Student Loans Act (ECASLA) expanded the grants to non-citizens, part-time students, and students pursuing certificate
programs.
Academic Competitiveness Grants (ACG)._These grants were awarded to first-year and second-year students who completed a rigorous course of study in high school.
Grant levels were $750 for first-year students and $1,300 for second-year students.
Science and Mathematics Access to Retain Talent (SMART) Grants._These grants were awarded to third-year and fourth-year students pursuing a major in mathematics, science, or a foreign language
deemed critical to national security. Grant levels were $4,000 for both third- and fourth-year students.
Taken together with other Federal student aid, grants could not exceed a student's cost of attendance. Program funding in
excess of the amount needed to fund grants in a given year could be carried over for use in subsequent years; if the mandatory
funding level was insufficient to fund program grants, grant levels were reduced.
This program expired July 1, 2011.

The TEACH Grant program, authorized by the College Cost Reduction and Access Act of 2007, awards annual grants of up to $4,000
to full- or part-time undergraduate and graduate students who agree to teach mathematics, science, foreign languages, bilingual
education, special education, or reading at a high-poverty school for not less than 4 years within 8 years of graduating.
The program began awarding grants in the 2008–2009 award year. Students must have a grade point average of 3.25 or higher
to be eligible to receive a grant. Students who fail to fulfill the service requirements must repay the grants, including
interest accrued from the time of award.
Because TEACH Grants turn into loans in cases where the service requirements are not fulfilled, for budget and accounting
purposes the program is operated consistent with the requirements of the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990. This program
account records subsidy costs reflecting the net present value of the estimated lifetime Federal program costs for grants
awarded in a given fiscal year. Under this approach the subsidy cost reflects the cost of grant awards net of expected future
repayments for grants that are converted to loans.
The 2013 Budget proposes to overhaul the TEACH Grant program, as of the end of the 2012–2013 academic year, and replace it
with a new, targeted teacher recruitment and retention program called the Presidential Teaching Fellows. This new program
would provide grants to States that meet certain conditions to supply scholarships of up to $10,000 to talented individuals
attending the most effective programs in the State. These individuals would commit to teaching for at least three years in
a high-need school and subject. To be eligible for funds, States would measure the effectiveness of their teacher preparation
programs based on student achievement data of their graduates, among other measures, hold teacher preparation programs accountable
for results, and upgrade licensure and certification standards.

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

The Federal Government currently operates two major student loan programs: the Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) program
and the William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan (Direct Loan) program. The Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010
(HCERA) eliminated the authorization to originate new FFEL loans. Starting July 1, 2010, all new loans are originated in the
Direct Loan program. This summary section outlines the structure of these two programs and provides text tables displaying
program cost data; loan volume, subsidy, default, and interest rates; and other descriptive information.
From its inception in 1965 through the end of June 2010, the FFEL program provided almost $899 billion in loans to postsecondary
students and their parents. Although no new FFEL loans will be originated, billions of outstanding FFEL loans will continue
to be served by lenders. Since July 1, 1994, the Direct Loan program has provided nearly $527 billion in new and consolidation
loans to students and parents. The Direct Loan program will make over $120.8 billion in new loans available in 2013.
Loan capital in the FFEL program was provided by private lenders, facilitated by the Federal guarantee on the loans. For
the outstanding FFEL portfolio, 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 Budget proposes two technical
changes to the guaranty agencies' compensation via the retention of loan rehabilitation funds: eliminating their current retention
share of the original defaulted student loan amount, and reducing the fee they can charge to borrower on the borrower's outstanding
balance to 16 percent. This policy requires agencies to send the rehabilitated loans to the Department of Education if they
cannot find a private lender buyer, but maintains their right to the 16 percent collection fee. The Government also pays interest
subsidies to lenders for certain borrowers, as well as most costs associated with loan defaults and other write-offs.
Under the Direct Loan program, the Federal Government provides loan capital through the Treasury while loan origination and
servicing is handled by private-sector companies under performance-based contracts with the Department. The Direct Loan program
began operation in academic year 1994–1995 with seven percent of overall loan volume but will originate all future loans.
The Direct Loan program offers four types of loans: Stafford, Unsubsidized Stafford, PLUS, 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.
For Stafford Loans, the College Cost Reduction and Access Act of 2007 (CCRAA) included a phased interest rate reduction for
new Stafford Loans, with fixed rates dropping to 3.4 percent on July 1, 2011, and rising to 6.8 percent on July 1, 2012.
Interest payments for these loans are fully subsidized by the Government while a student is in school and during grace and
deferment periods. In light of current economic conditions, the Budget proposes to maintain the current 3.4 percent interest
rate through July 1, 2013. The Budget Control Act of 2011 eliminated the availability of Stafford loans for graduate and professional
students as of July 1, 2012. Annual and cumulative loan limits have been raised in the unsubsidized Stafford program to maintain
these loan limits at their amounts prior to this legislative change. The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2012 authorized
that interest on Stafford loans issued between July 1, 2012 and July 1, 2014 will begin to accrue during the 6-month grace
period after a borrower leaves school. The 2013 President's Budget proposes to further reduce the availability of the interest
subsidy to borrowers who borrow for more than 150 percent of their program length. Beyond the 150 percent point, interest
would begin to accrue.
Borrower interest rates on new Unsubsidized Stafford loans are fixed at 6.8 percent. The fixed borrower interest rate on
PLUS loans is 7.9 percent.
For loans previously originated in the FFEL program, lenders may receive an interest subsidy, commonly known as a special
allowance payment, from the Government to ensure a guaranteed rate of return on the loans. Special allowance payments vary
by loan type, are determined quarterly, and are based on current borrower interest rates and market-yield formulas. For periods
when the borrower interest rate exceeds the special allowance rate on loans made on or after April 1, 2006, lenders remit
the difference to the Government. Special allowance rates differ for for-profit and not-for-profit loan holders. For Stafford
and Unsubsidized Stafford loans made on or after October 1, 2007, for example, the Federal Government must pay lenders a special
allowance if the average 3-month commercial paper rate for a given quarter plus 1.79 percent for for-profit holders, or 1.94
percent for not-for-profit holders, is higher than the current interest rate charged to borrowers. The guarantee percentage
paid to lenders on most defaults is 97 percent of unpaid loan principal (including any accrued interest on the full loan principal).
The 2012 Appropriations Act gave holders of Federal student loans the option to change the basis for the special allowance
calculation from commercial paper to the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) beginning April 1, 2012.
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 Consolidation loans
equals the weighted average of the interest rate on the loans consolidated, rounded up to the nearest one-eighth of one percent.
Interest rates for new Consolidation Loans are capped at 8.25 percent. The Consolidation estimate in 2012 reflects a special,
one-time, six-month program (January to June 2012) to encourage students who have both a FFEL and a Direct Loan to consolidate
their loans into one Direct Loan. As an incentive to do so, qualified borrowers would be eligible for a 0.25 percent interest
rate reduction. This program accounts for approximately $38 billion out of the $63 billion in total Consolidation activity
during 2012.
Direct Loan origination fees are 1 percent. Loans are discharged when borrowers die, are totally and permanently disabled,
or under some circumstances, declare bankruptcy.
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; this benefit is increased to $17,500 for mathematics,
science, and special education teachers considered highly qualified under criteria established in the Elementary and Secondary
Education Act.
In addition, under a loan forgiveness program for public-sector employees, qualifying borrowers who have worked for 10 years
while making payments on their student loans will have any remaining loan balance forgiven. This benefit is only available
in the Direct Loan program, though FFEL borrowers may receive the benefit by taking out a Direct Consolidation Loan. It is
available for all borrowers, regardless of when they took out their loans.
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 totaling more than $30,000. FFEL borrowers may change repayment plans annually. Borrowers under Direct Loans may choose
from the same repayment plans available in FFEL, except that instead of the income-sensitive repayment plan an income-contingent
repayment is available (with terms similar to the new income-based repayment plan). Direct Loan borrowers may switch between
repayment plans at any time.
In addition, since July 1, 2009, qualifying student borrowers may choose an income-based repayment plan under which monthly
loan payments (except Parent PLUS) are based on the borrower's income and outstanding balances, if any, are forgiven after
25 years in repayment. (In the first three years, an interest subsidy is available for Stafford Loans and the Stafford portion
of Consolidation Loans.) Monthly loan payments can be up to 15 percent of a borrower's prior-year income. (Payments cannot
exceed the amount calculated under the Standard 10-year repayment option.) Beginning July 1, 2014, new loans will be eligible
for a reduced maximum assessment rate of 10 percent of prior-year income with a maximum of 20 years in repayment. In October
2011, the President announced a plan that, starting in 2012, would allow about 1.6 million students to take advantage of a
similar option even earlier.

1Default 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 three years of repayment
to determine institutional eligibility to participate in Federal loan programs. These three-year rates tend to be lower than
those included in this table.
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.
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, defaulted FFEL loans that are repaid through
consolidation produce cash revenue in the current year as the underlying loans are paid off, which is included in the table.
But these consolidations also incur estimated future costs — such as subsequent re-defaults, loan discharges, and lender interest
subsidy payments — that are not reflected.
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.

Totals may not add due to rounding. Subsidies are weighted on Gross Volumes.Notes: For 2011, the rates are current; these include the actual executed rates for 2011 and the effect of re-estimates on
those rates.
The chart above describes 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. 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.
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 (amounts in billions)
Total Subsidy Costs 1992–2011 (amounts in billions)
FFEL
Direct Loans

Cumulative Reestimates
-$44.3
+$9.8
Net Subsidy Costs
+$32.8
-$17.3
Total Disbursements
+$898.7
$526.6
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) have also contributed to these reestimates.

Research and Statistics:
Research, development, and dissemination._Funds support a diverse portfolio of investigator-led research and development, evaluation studies, research and development
centers, and dissemination activities that provide parents, teachers, and schools with evidence-based information on effective
educational practice. Funds requested in 2013 would be used to expand research and evaluation efforts on topics in early childhood,
elementary, secondary, and postsecondary education.
Statistics._Funds support the Department's statistical data collection activities, which are conducted by the National Center for Education
Statistics (NCES). NCES collects, analyzes, and disseminates statistics on education at all levels, from preschool through
postsecondary and adult education, including statistics on international education activities. The 2013 request would allow
NCES to continue its on-going portfolio of activities, including collecting and reporting information on sub-baccalaureate
education and training for adults, as well as to obtain State-level Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) data.
Regional educational laboratories._Funds support a network of 10 regional laboratories that provide expert advice, including training and technical assistance,
to help States and school districts apply proven research findings in their school improvement efforts.
Assessment._Funds support the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) and the National Assessment Governing Board (NAGB).
NAEP administers assessments to samples of students in order to gather reliable information about educational attainment in
important academic areas. NAGB is responsible for formulating NAEP policy. The request for 2013 would support the 2013 national
and State reading and math assessments at grades 4, 8, and 12, as well as assessments in certain large urban districts, and
preparation for future assessments.
Research in special education._Funds support research to address gaps in scientific knowledge in order to improve special education and early intervention
services and results for infants, toddlers, and children with disabilities.
Statewide data systems._Funds support competitive awards to State educational agencies to foster the design, development, and implementation of longitudinal
data systems. In 2013, funding would support systems that include early childhood, postsecondary, and workforce information;
awards to public and private agencies to improve data coordination, quality, and use at the local, State, and national levels;
and a special postsecondary and workforce initiative designed to improve the quality of information on students as they move
from high school into postsecondary education and training, and then into the workforce.
