Summary

Amends the Higher Education Act of 1965 to limit the maximum Pell Grant a student may receive for academic year 1983-1984 to $1,800 or 50 percent of the cost of attendance (as defined for academic year 1982-1983). Directs the Secretary of Education to approve separate (from the Pell Grant family contribution schedule) systems of need analysis for academic years 1983-1984 and 1984-1985 for the campus-based programs of supplemental education opportunity grants, work-study, and direct loans. Carries over for academic years 1983-1984 and 1984-1985 the Pell Grant cost of attendance criteria in effect for academic year 1982-1983. Carries over the academic year 1982-1983 Pell Grant family contribution schedule into academic year 1983-1984, with specified modifications to be published within 15 days of enactment of this Act. Provides that the academic year 1984-1985 Pell Grant family contribution schedule shall be the same as for academic year 1983-1984, with specified modifications, unless the Secretary of Education publishes in the Federal Register and submits to the Congress a proposed schedule by April 1, 1983, and a final schedule by May 15, 1983. Provides that such final schedule shall take effect unless either House of the Congress adopts a resolution of disapproval by a specified date. Provides for a new proposed schedule to take effect unless another resolution of disapproval is adopted. Directs the Secretary to publish in the Federal Register: (1) changes in amounts allowed as an offset for family size as a consequence of specified modifications of the Pell Grant family contribution schedule for academic year 1984-1985, immediately after publication of the Consumer Price Index for September, 1983; and (2) the modified family contribution schedule for academic year 1984-1985, by July 15,1983, under specified conditions. Replaces the ratable reduction formula effective for academic year 1983-1984 and succeeding academic years, under which when there are insufficient appropriations, awards for those with lesser need would be cut by a larger percentage than awards for those with greater need.
