Dr. William W. Sullivan TRIO Upward Bound Student Stipend Support Act

This bill changes the Higher Education Act of 1965 to raise the maximum monthly stipends that students in federal TRIO Upward Bound projects can be paid. For fiscal year 2027, the stipend limits would triple: from $60 to $180, from $300 to $900, and from $40 to $120 per month. It also sets a stipend limit of $300 per month for veterans in Upward Bound projects designed for veterans in fiscal year 2027. Starting in fiscal year 2028, the limits would rise each year with the Consumer Price Index, as determined by the Secretary of Education, rounded to the nearest $10.
