DR. CHARLES J. WARE, ATTORNEY & AUTHOR: Higher Education Act (HEA) versus High Education Opportunity ACT (HEOA), www.CharlesJeromeWare.com

Dr. Charles J. Ware is former Executive Vice President, General Counsel, Found & Executive Director of the College's non-profit foundation, as well as Business Law professor for Saint Paul's College in Lawrenceville, Virginia.

The primary distinctions between the "HEA" and the "HEOA" are as follows:

Higher Education Act (HEA)     

 
The Higher Education Act (HEA) is the federal law that governs the administration of federal student aid programs. The HEA was originally passed in 1965 and signed into law by President Lyndon B. Johnson. To encourage growth and change, it must be re-approved, or "reauthorized," by Congress approximately every five years. In addition to major reauthorization bills, Congress also considers many bills that may directly or indirectly impact the HEA.

Higher Education Opportunity Act - 2008 (HEOA) 

The Higher Education Opportunity Act (Public Law 110-315) (HEOA) was enacted on August 14, 2008, and reauthorizes the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended (HEA).
