HR 10209 United States House · 118th Congress

To amend the Cybersecurity Enhancement Act of 2014 to make improvements to the Federal Cyber Scholarship for Service Program, and for other purposes.

HR 10209 extends the required service period for participants in the Federal Cyber Scholarship for Service Program from 3 to 5 years. It also removes restrictions that previously limited scholarship recipients' access to full federal loans under the Higher Education Act, ensuring they can receive the full loan amount regardless of other education law limitations. This bill directly affects students who receive cybersecurity scholarships through the program, changing their post-graduation service commitment and simplifying their access to financial aid. The changes aim to strengthen the program's ability to recruit and retain cybersecurity talent for federal positions.
