Affordable Connectivity Program:
- The White House recently announced a program to help make high speed internet more affordable to households, including those with Pell Grant recipients. The Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP), which was authorized in the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, provides households a $30 monthly discount on internet services, as well as a one-time $100 discount towards a computer.
- Students and families can go to getinternet.gov, for details on eligibility for the ACP and steps on enrolling. Additionally, the White House worked with several internet service providers to lower the costs of services so that many ACP recipients will have access to internet at no cost.
