Federal appropriators added $15 billion in new Pell Grant funding to the FY 2026 appropriations package on top of the standard appropriation level — a response to a structural shortfall that CBO scored at $5.4 billion in FY 2026 and $11.5 billion in FY 2027. The Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget projects a cumulative gap of $61 billion to $97 billion through 2035 even after the one-time fix. Meanwhile, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act expanded eligibility to short-term Workforce Pell programs, adding $2 to $6 billion in new costs. The Pell program is the foundation of need-based federal student aid, but the structural mismatch between rising costs and appropriations is a permanent feature now. Here is what that means for institutions, foundations, and state higher-ed agencies.

Read articleBuried in OMB's 400-page rewrite of 2 CFR Part 200 is a structural decision to delete fixed-amount awards and fixed-amount subawards as a permissible federal grant vehicle except where Congress explicitly authorizes them by statute. The change targets outcome-payment grants, milestone-based workforce training contracts, charter school federal pass-throughs, and the entire universe of simplified award programs that have allowed small grantees to operate without month-by-month cost accounting infrastructure. Comments close July 13; proposed effective date October 1. Grantees who do not begin building cost-allocation systems now will not be able to bid on FY27 NOFOs.
