U.S. TO ENFORCE COLLEGE-AID LAW
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Bush administration has decided to enforce a
previously ignored law denying federal financial aid to college students
with drug convictions.
Hundreds of thousands of applicants who did not answer a drug conviction
question on their applications were not denied aid during the Clinton
administration, despite the law saying they should have been.
Now, failure to answer the question will result in rejection of the
application.
