regarding any grants to individuals, shall ensure that no grant
recipient receives an amount of grants from one or more Federal programs
which in the aggregate would exceed the cost of his or her education,
and shall require satisfactory educational progress by grantees as a
condition of eligibility for continued receipt of grant funds.
