And then and and do you have you calculated any numbers, you know, the you know, saying for the Pell Grant recipients minus the number of students who aren't ASAP, minus the number of students who are in Reconnect or some other program, have you sort of calculated what the cost would kind of look like sorry, what the investment cost would look like for that.

Right.

I'd have to get back to you about that.

I believe we calculated that figure for all the community college students.
