General HEA Information

Here you will find background -- even deep and detailed background -- on the course and components of the HEA reauthorization.  This is where you find links to the full text ("statutory language") on the three separate bills that comprise the reauthorization, along with other documents that give insight into the shaping of the legislation.

Maybe most importantly, it is here that you will find new information and resources as implementation of the HEA proceeds over the coming months.  Check the Updates page for developments that well may affect -- or even change -- the guidance we have provided in the other Web pages and the printed HEA 101 Quick Guide.
