Trump administration to overhaul federal scholarship website
The Trump administration has announced plans to overhaul CareerOneStop, a federally run scholarship website. The move follows the administration's ongoing opposition to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs. The website currently features a tool that allows users to organize scholarship opportunities based on criteria including race and gender.
This action follows previous investigations by the Department of Education into universities offering scholarships specifically for racial minority students. For example, the University of Louisville has already adjusted its scholarship criteria to no longer use race, ethnicity, gender, or sexual orientation as factors in response to federal guidance and investigations.
