College Cost Reduction and Access Act
of 2007 (H.R. 2669) Helps
to Make College More Affordable
This recently passed bill cuts interest rates on student loans in half, from 6.8 percent to 3.4 percent over 5 years, making student loan repayment more manageable. Importantly, it guarantees that borrowers will never spend more than 15 percent of their yearly income on loan repayments and will have their loans forgiven after 25 years. The legislation also provides upfront tuition for good students who commit to teach in high needs schools upon graduation and provides loan forgiveness for a range of other public service employees.
The CCRA Act increases the amount students receive in Pell Grant scholarships to $5,400 a year by 2012, up from $4,050 in 2006. Unlike other forms of financial aid, students do not have to repay Pell Grants. Eligibility for the grant is based on family income.
