SRU helps students financially until state has budget - Butler Eagle

Slippery Rock University is spending $3 million to support 2,100 state students while there is no state budget. Thousands of college students across the state depend on financial aid from the state, but they won’t get their money on time this year. This is because the Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency is not able to confirm awards or disburse funds for the 2015-16 academic school year until the state budget is passed, according to its website. http://www.butlereagle.com/article/20150904/NEWS12/709049813
