[088 (If new financial aid database could lllll‘t transfers

By Stephen Trimble

Iii'r‘iirrlz'e I’dirm‘

\Vith a proposal to cut $312 million in student
financial aid circulating in the U. S. Home of Repre—
sentatives, a relatively small $500, 000 cut seems to
have U K financial aid officials the most worried.

Ihc Student Financial .‘\id Database is among 1‘)
program cuts approved by the .‘\ppropriations Sub-
committee on Labor, Health and Human Services
and Education last week.

“That one bothers us, and it really ought to bother
the students," said David Prater, associate director
for student financial aid.

For transfer students to receive federal aid, they
must provide transcripts from their last school show»
ing they have not defaulted on student loans.

Prater said the database project began compiling
student names and financial aid status last summer

Once the project is completed this summer Prater
said it will save transfer students sometimes four to
five weeks to process their aid applications.

Students transferring from Vi ester 1i Kentucky
University and renewing their federal aid here would

have to ask \VKU's financial aid office for transcripts,
Prater said. “\Ve can't disperse aid until we get those
transcripts," he said.

The bill still has a long way to travel on

for teachiii r, Prater said.
“That iliies‘n't sound like a lot, but you take a
dozen students here and a dozen students there, both
here and around the country, you have .i
