Millions in federal grants go unused by needy students
The Basic Educational Opportunities Grants program, a $122 million federal effort to aid low income postsecondary students, has seen limited takeup as of early this year with only about half the funds distributed. Applications are due April 1, and many colleges report low grant receipt rates, while some institutions like Lehman College have actively promoted the program.
