On Wednesday, March 22nd, Langston University announced that it will clear student balances through the use of Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund (HEERF) grant funding. The amount cleared totals $4,587,485.82, and will immediately pay off debt owed to the university for students enrolled in the Summer 2022, Fall 2022, and Spring 2023 academic terms. This is the second time that the university has canceled student debt. In August of 2021, the amount of debt cleared was $4,654,112. The two clearance initiatives together total over $9.2 million. Many other Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) have cleared student account balances with grant funding due the pandemic.
