States Slow Spending on Financial Aid to Students.

Blumenstyk, Goldie

Chronicle of Higher Education, v37 n23 pA28 Feb 20 1991

Budget problems are leading states to limit grants for college students in 1990-91, although overall aid spending is higher than ever. Grant programs not based on need are increasing faster than spending on need-based aid, mostly in awards for academic achievement and programs for equalizing tuition between public and private institutions.
