Seems like a good way to cut out some costs without impacting students in a significant way. Isn't that what we want government to do? Cut the wasteful spending?
This seems similar to the good move of eliminating banks as middlemen for student loans - banks were getting a check for mailing in paperwork to the government, then passing out the check to the student when the government approved. Big waste. Now the student can deal directly with the government. Good thing.
