What this bill would do

This bill, titled the ``Student Loan Contract Act of 2025'', proposes an amendment to the Higher Education Act of 1965. The primary purpose is to rename master promissory notes for loans made under part D of title IV to "student loan contracts." This change applies to any master promissory note form used for loans with enrollment dates on or after the date this Act is enacted. The bill also includes a clarification regarding the use of these contracts within the same award year.
