This bill reauthorizes through FY2025 and revises TRIO programs. (These outreach and student-services programs identify and provide services to students from disadvantaged backgrounds.)
Among other revisions to the programs, the bill

- requires ED to provide additional technical assistance to interested grant applicants, and
- allows program administrators to use a student's most recent Free Application for Federal Student Aid to determine TRIO program eligibility.
