What it does
The Restoring Opportunity for Advanced Education Act would amend the Higher Education Act of 1965 to eliminate federal student loan limits and restore access to Federal Direct PLUS Loans for graduate and professional students. It modifies Section 455(a) by removing outdated date-based restrictions and streamlining loan eligibility provisions, effectively allowing unlimited borrowing through PLUS Loans for graduate and professional education starting July 1, 2012.
