Access to financial aid plays a critical role in a student's ability to access, persist and complete a postsecondary education. This is especially true for students without a high school diploma or its equivalent.

Under the ATB provision, otherwise-eligible students — who do not have a high school diploma or its recognized equivalent but are enrolled in an eligible career pathway program — may qualify for federal financial aid.
