What’s in it

AI summary More students could qualify for the Future Ready Iowa skilled workforce scholarship under this change. It expands eligibility to include people who enroll in college for a semester right after high school or those who are already considered adult learners. This update helps more people get help paying for their education at eligible schools.1

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.
