This report from the College Board describes the current state of the Pell Grants, the need for reforming them, and recommendations on how to reform them in order to increase the effectiveness of the Pell Grant program. Some of these recommendations include dividing the program into two components, one that serves people through the age of 24 and one that serves older adults; simplifying the application process and eligibility criteria; and changing the award eligibility requirements for those over the age of 24.
