"A new bill introduced in the House of Representatives would make low-income college students eligible to receive $1,200 stimulus checks that were distributed as part of the CARES Act," Forbes reports.

..."A survey by the National Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators (NASFAA) showed that while only 28 percent of institutions had distributed aid in May, by June, 94 percent had disbursed their CARES Act emergency grants. However, the required reporting by each institution receiving aid highlights a disparity in the amounts given to students as well as the process used to determine the amounts."
