Five community colleges in Ohio are getting grant money to help students who need remedial education before they can succeed in college level courses. Grourck of the Gates Foundation says each of the colleges will be given $700,000 to fund the remedial assistance they outlined in their applications for the grants. |

| Grourk says the students themselves will not receive money to help pay for the cost of tuition for remedial courses. She says this money will help those colleges defray the cost of providing remedial education to students. |
