What it does

This bill relates to the future ready Iowa skilled workforce last-dollar scholarship program. The program covers the difference between the cost to students of tuition and fees of certain specified eligible programs and the federal and state grants and scholarships available to the students. Current law defines an “eligible program” as a program of study or an academic major jointly approved by the college student aid commission and the department of workforce development that leads to a credential aligned with a high-demand job.
