No Student Loans for Campus Criminals Act
United States119th CongressS-937Senate
Updated: Mar 11, 2025
Summary
This bill proposes to establish new eligibility restrictions for federal student aid, specifically targeting individuals convicted of certain offenses related to campus protests. It stipulates that any individual convicted under Federal or State law for conduct during a protest at an institution of higher education would become ineligible for future federal student loans. This measure aims to link criminal convictions from campus protest activities directly to an individual's access to federal educational funding. Furthermore, these individuals would also be barred from receiving any forgiveness, cancellation, waiver, or modification for existing federal student loans. This prohibition applies broadly to various federal student loans, including those under Title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as well as Health Education Assistance Loans, thereby impacting both new loan access and relief from prior student debt.
