Read the official explanation
This bill expands the definition of “eligible student” under the future ready Iowa skilled workforce last-dollar scholarship program administered by the college student aid commission. Current law limits scholarship eligibility to new high school graduates who enroll full-time in an eligible institution by the fall semester following graduation or completion of private instruction, and to adult learners who enroll full-time or part-time in an eligible institution. The bill amends the definition to include individuals who, following high school graduation or completion of private instruction and prior to becoming an adult learner, enroll full-time in an eligible institution for a regular semester or part-time for a summer semester, as well as adult learners who are at least age at the beginning of the state fiscal year.
