Education Department will terminate aid to Florida Career College

Date:

April 12, 2023

The U.S. Department of Education announced today it will stop providing federal student grant and loan payments to Florida Career College (FCC), a for-profit school whose predatory practices Republic Report helped expose in a May 2020 investigation.

In a press release, Rich Cordray, head of the Department’s Office of Federal Student Aid (FSA), said, “Federal Student Aid is holding Florida Career College accountable for taking advantage of some of the most vulnerable students.”

The action against FCC is the most significant effort by far by the Biden administration to formally deny recertification for federal student aid.
