Ryan wants to eliminate Pell Grants for more more than 1 million students. Ryan?s budget claims both that rising financial aid is driving college tuition costs upward, and that Pell Grants, which help cover tuition costs for low-income Americans, don?t go to the ?truly needy.? So he cuts the Pell Grant program by $200 billion, which could ?ultimately knock more than one million students off? the program over the next 10 years.
